Highlight selenium clicks using AOP

Question

I am trying to plug in js element highlighting to selenium framework. I have this code:

@Aspect
public class HighlightAspect {

@Pointcut("execution(* *.click())")
private void allClickMethods(){}

@Before("allClickMethods()")
public void proxyClick(ProceedingJoinPoint joinPoint){
    WebElement element = (WebElement)joinPoint.getTarget();
    highlight(element, "green");
}

private void highlight(WebElement element, String color) {
    Browser.getBrowser().executeScript("arguments[0].style.backgroundColor = '"+color+"'",  element);
    }
}

I initialize spring context in 'main' class like:

private static ConfigurableApplicationContext ctx = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("spring_config.xml");

And my src/main/resources/spring_config.xml looks like:

<aop:aspectj-autoproxy />
...
    <bean
            id="highlightAspect"
            class="com.<my_name_space>.HighlightAspect">
    </bean>
...

I don't receive any exceptions from JVM, but when I add a logger to proxyClick I see this method didn't happen to be executed. Please, help me to make it work.
