Springboot tests fail with ldap addon dependency but disabled configuration

Support
#1

Since Jmix 1.4 the basic application test fail, if the application contains the LDAP-starter dependency but the (test environment) configuration disables the LDAP authentication.

At runtime it works as expected but the basic unit test loading the context fails in disabled ldap state:

Simply enabling the property jmix.ldap.enabled and keeping all other configuration values on dummy content is a workaround and makes the test pass.

Until Jmix 1.3.5 this change was not required to succeed the unit test without production values.

#2

I could find the reason for the test runtime behavior change.

Creating an abstract login screen including the login support operations with its dependency on io.jmix.security:jmix-security-ui and moving that into an add-on caused unintended test runtime dependencies. The LDAP property requirement is not related to Jmix 1.4.
