Method: Test::Unit::TestCase.startup

Defined in:

lib/test/unit/testcase.rb

.startup ⇒ Object

Called before every test case runs. Can be used to set up fixture information used in test case scope.

Here is an example test case:

class TestMyClass < Test::Unit::TestCase
  class << self
    def startup
      ...
    end
  end

  def setup
    ...
  end

  def test_my_class1
    ...
  end

  def test_my_class2
    ...
  end
end

Here is a call order:

• startup

• setup

• test_my_class1 (or test_my_class2)

• setup

• test_my_class2 (or test_my_class1)

Note that you should not assume test order. Tests should be worked in any order.
