- - org.springframework.test.context.event.EventPublishingTestExecutionListener

All Implemented Interfaces:
Ordered, TestExecutionListener
```
public class EventPublishingTestExecutionListener
extends AbstractTestExecutionListener
```
TestExecutionListener that publishes test execution events to the ApplicationContext for the currently executing test. Events are only published if the ApplicationContexthas already been loaded.
Supported Events
These events may be consumed for various reasons, such as resetting mock beans or tracing test execution. One advantage of consuming test events rather than implementing a custom TestExecutionListener is that test events may be consumed by any Spring bean registered in the test ApplicationContext, and such beans may benefit directly from dependency injection and other features of the ApplicationContext. In contrast, a TestExecutionListener is not a bean in the ApplicationContext.
Exception Handling
By default, if a test event listener throws an exception while consuming a test event, that exception will propagate to the underlying testing framework in use. For example, if the consumption of a BeforeTestMethodEvent results in an exception, the corresponding test method will fail as a result of the exception. In contrast, if an asynchronous test event listener throws an exception, the exception will not propagate to the underlying testing framework. For further details on asynchronous exception handling, consult the class-level Javadoc for @EventListener.
Asynchronous Listeners
If you want a particular test event listener to process events asynchronously, you can use Spring's @Async support. For further details, consult the class-level Javadoc for @EventListener.
