Recipes to upgrade to Spring Framework 6.2

[timtebeek]

We want to support migrations to Spring Framework 6.2, as part of a migration to Spring Boot 3.4.

Here's a quick link to the release notes: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/wiki/Spring-Framework-6.2-Release-Notes

And here's an incomplete list of necessary steps for this migration:

• [ ] Deprecated APIs removed in https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/issues/30608
• [ ] Additional APIs removed in https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/issues/33123
• [ ] WebContentGenerator removed in https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/issues/31492
• [ ] Migrating from HtmlUnit 2.x.x to HtmlUnit 3.x.x as per https://htmlunit.sourceforge.io/migration.html
  • [ ] ~https://github.com/openrewrite/rewrite-testing-frameworks/pull/643~
  • [ ] Include the HtmlUnit migrations with the Spring Framework 6.2 upgrade

We welcome anyone to pick off individual items here in pull requests, even if it's just a draft PR with unit tests added.

Hi any tentative time to get Spring Boot 3.4 recipe ready? As I have tried activeRecipe("org.openrewrite.java.spring.boot3.UpgradeSpringBoot_3_4") but it's not working and showing org.openrewrite.RecipeException: Recipe(s) not found: org.openrewrite.java.spring.boot3.UpgradeSpringBoot_3_4

Also are we going to include changes of @mockBean & @sypbean as per https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/wiki/Spring-Boot-3.4-Release-Notes#deprecation-of-mockbean-and-spybean

hi! Those recipes first have to be written and contributed to the project; I've logged a small break down of tasks for Spring Boot:

Welcome to help out on either the steps here or on that other issue.

This PR from @wapkch helpfully includes some of the steps above already:

• https://github.com/openrewrite/rewrite-spring/pull/693
• https://github.com/openrewrite/rewrite-spring/pull/689
