Applications should not delete entire User records in tests.

Overview of the issue

Tests removes every User and Authorities in tests making more difficult to implement and test more advanced security based on Users. Liquibase and any other bootstrapped data are removed. We should avoid removing Users and Authorities in tests.

Since it's related, I recently had to workaround this in my 21-Points Health project. In case others run into this with v8.4.0 and previous, here's a fix: https://github.com/mraible/21-points/pull/258/commits/caa91ba41fc03f1723f68a9ef5b22340a065eb4c.

Cache seems to be influencing in tests. Tests requiring workaround increased: https://github.com/jhipster/generator-jhipster/blob/fb2b56dfb61f5058e58d7ea3173f1d5e12aaf995/generators/spring-boot/generator.ts#L289-L294
