Absence of dependencies for optional TestExecutionListener breaks integration tests #28828
Description
Integration test execution fails in Eclipse if modules like spring-tx are not on the classpath.
The attached reproducer is a bare bone Spring Boot application created via the Initializr without any actual dependencies added. It builds fine on the command line (via Maven) but when imported into Eclipse, the test execution fails with the following stack trace:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to load default TestExecutionListener [org.springframework.test.context.transaction.TransactionalTestExecutionListener].

The error is caused by the lookup of the TestExecutionListeners (AbstractTestContextBootstrapper.getDefaultTestExecutionListeners()), but the registered FailureHandler is not handling the exception as thrown by Eclipse. In Eclipse an InvocationTagetException is thrown wrapping a NoClassDefFoundError likely resulting from a different Classloader arrangement in the IDE's test execution.
