Annotation Type BeforeObjects

@Target(value=METHOD)
 @Retention(value=RUNTIME)
 @Inherited
 @Documented
public @interface BeforeObjects

The BeforeObjects annotation can be used to identify a method that will be invoked before the test methods in order to pre-populate the database with the pojos returned by the method.

The referenced method must be public. It can return an array, a Collection, an Iterable, an Iterator, an Enumeration, or a Stream of pojo objects or a single object to insert in the database. Finally, if it is declared with a single parameter of type Map<String, String> the Helenus JUnit framework will provide access to each keyspace key values based on the corresponding keyspace key types. It is therefore possible that the method be called multiple times; once per set of keyspace key values. The keyspace key values are computed from the PartitionKeyValues annotation provided for the test method and class.
