Use libtest-mimic to do setup and teardown? about libtest-mimic HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi! How exactly do you think mimic would do that? We could pass a setup and a teardown function to run_tests but... you could also just call those two funtions before and after the call to run_tests. So one wouldn't gain anything by that.

Or you are talking about running setup before each test and teardown after each test. This is different, but can also already achieve easily today with mimic: in the closure run_test you pass to run_tests you can easily call those two functions.

So I'm not sure how or if mimic can even help here :/

Ok, I think I better understand what libtest-mimic actually delivers; everything except the test runner. :-)

Yeah, I'm looking for a way to do before-all setup and before-all teardown, around the integration tests. It turns out, this is pretty hard to accomplish, and not built in. Maybe I could achieve it by calling libtest to do the actual test-runner work.

That might indeed work. But I really don't know stuff about how to manually run #[test] tests. So I guess I can't help you there :/

I think there is nothing to do here anymore. So I'm closing this for now.
