             Summary: Authorization decorators don't null out connections when 
done
                 Key: DERBY-5705
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5705
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Test
    Affects Versions: 10.9.0.0
            Reporter: Knut Anders Hatlen
            Assignee: Knut Anders Hatlen


Some decorators used to test authorization don't close and null out references 
to Connection objects when they have completed. Since these tests often 
create/boot single-use databases, and the Connection objects have references to 
the database instance and, directly or indirectly, many of its modules, this 
prevents much garbage from being removed from the heap after the tests have 
completed and shut down their single-use databases. We should close the default 
connection and clear the reference to it when tearing down these decorators, so 
the space is released for subsequent tests to use.

This problem affects decorators returned by the following methods:

DatabasePropertyTestSetup.builtinAuthenticationNoTeardown()
TestConfiguration.sqlAuthorizationDecorator()
TestConfiguration.sqlAuthorizationDecoratorSingleUse()

These methods return modified versions of DatabasePropertyTestSetup where the 
tearDown() method is a no-op.
