/**
 * Marks a test class or test method as belonging to one or more categories of tests.
 * The value is an array of arbitrary classes.
 *
 * This annotation is only interpreted by the Categories runner (at present).
 *
 * For example:
 * <pre>
 * public interface FastTests {}
 * public interface SlowTests {}
 *
 * public static class A {
 * &#064;Test
 * public void a() {
 * fail();
 * }
 *
 * &#064;Category(SlowTests.class)
 * &#064;Test
 * public void b() {
 * }
 * }
 *
 * &#064;Category({SlowTests.class, FastTests.class})
 * public static class B {
 * &#064;Test
 * public void c() {
 *
 * }
 * }
 * </pre>
