/**
 * ProtectedPrivates unit testing of restricted methods.
 *
 * This test case demonstrates the following unit testing patterns and topics:
 * - Using reflection to test private class methods.
 * - Using subclassing to test protected class methods.
 *
 * If you are reading this and don't understand the basics of unit testing,
 * start reading AddClassTest instead.
 *
 * This test class uses reflection and subclassing to work around method
 * access problems. Since, by design, a private method is inaccessible,
 * we have to use reflection to gain access to the method for our own
 * purposes.
 *
 * The getAccessibleMethod() method demonstrates a way to do this.
 *
 * Once we've set the method to be accessible, we can use it as if
 * it were public.
 *
 * The same technique can be used for protected methods. However, there
 * might be times when it makes more sense to subclass the class under
 * test, and just make a public accessor method that way. So we
 * demonstrate that here in testProtectedAdd().
