Annotation Type BeforeTransaction

@Target(value={METHOD,ANNOTATION_TYPE})
 @Retention(value=RUNTIME)
 @Documented
public @interface BeforeTransaction

Test annotation which indicates that the annotated void method should be executed before a transaction is started for a test method configured to run within a transaction via Spring's @Transactional annotation.

@BeforeTransaction methods declared in superclasses or as interface default methods will be executed before those of the current test class.

This annotation may be used as a meta-annotation to create custom composed annotations.

As of Spring Framework 4.3, @BeforeTransaction may also be declared on Java 8 based interface default methods.
