 * <code>TestCase</code> represent a factory for <code>TestEnvironment</code>s

 * <code>TestEnvironment</code> contains an instance of the implementation
 * object and all additional objects needed to perform tests on the object.
 *
 * <p>The <code>TestCase</code> provides four methods for its subclasses to
 * define its functionality: <code>initialize()</code>, <code>cleanup()</code>,
 * <code>createTestEnvironment()</code> and <code>disposeTestEnvironment()</code>.
 * The first two are intended to initialize and cleanup common objects shared
 * among all instances of <code>TestEnvironment</code> produced by the
 * <code>TestCase</code>, and they are called at the beginning and at the end of
 * the <code>TestCase</code> lifecycle accordingly.
 *
 * <p>The other two are intended to produce and dispose
 * <code>TestEnvironment</code> instances. The
 * <code>createTestEnvironment()</code> is called to create a
 * <code>TestEnvironment</code> instance and the
 * <code>disposeTestEnvironment()</code> is called when the instane is not used
 * anymore.
