Hello,
I have a number of conceptually separate tests that nevertheless need
a common, complicated and expensive setup.
Unfortunately, unittest runs the setUp method once for each defined
test, even if they're part of the same class as in
class TwoTests(unittest.TestCase):
def setUp(self):
# do something very time consuming
def testOneThing(self):
def testADifferentThing(self):
which would call setUp twice.
Is there any way to avoid this, without packing all the unrelated
tests into one big function?
Best,
-Nikolaus
