026 * Test annotation to indicate that a test method should be invoked repeatedly.
027 *
028 * <p>Note that the scope of execution to be repeated includes execution of the
029 * test method itself as well as any <em>set up</em> or <em>tear down</em> of
030 * the test fixture.
031 *
032 * <p>As of Spring Framework 4.0, this annotation may be used as a
033 * <em>meta-annotation</em> to create custom <em>composed annotations</em>.
