> Currently, the {{SourceOperator}} only gets a {{Source}} in the constructor.
> All actual components that the {{SourceOperator}} relies on when working are 
> lazily initialized, in {{open()}} or via setters.
> Relying on something as broad as {{Source}} also means that a lot of 
> redundant context has to be provided to the {{SourceOperator}} during 
> initialization. The {{Source}} is, for example, also responsible for the 
> {{SourceEnumerator}}, which is independent of the {{SourceOperator}}. 
> However, it needs to be considered during testing, now, because the tests 
> need to mock a full {{Source}} in order to instantiate a {{SourceOperator}}.
> The solution is to directly pass the collaborators of the {{SourceOperator}} 
> directly eagerly into the constructor. It is not fully possible with the 
> {{SourceReader}}, but for that we can at least reduce the scope by passing a 
> targeted factory function.
