    Generate a value from the annotated class' or type's constructors or factory methods.

    Applies to any parameter that is annotated with @ForAll. Only the raw type of a parameter is considered. Parameterized and generic types are forbidden.

    If no value is given, the default is to use public constructors and factory methods from the annotated type.
