Setup and Teardown
nFor
a collection of tests for a particular class, there are often some repeated tasks that must be done
prior to each test
case.
nExamples:
create some “interesting” objects to work with, open a network connection, etc.
nLikewise,
at the end of each test case, there may be repeated tasks to clean up after test
execution.
nEnsures resources are released, test system
is in known state for
next test case, etc.
nSince a test case failure ends execution of a test
method at that
point, code to clean up cannot be at the end
of the method.
