Hi all,
I think that test behavior lakcs two important steps in the behavior.
I"m speaking about test "begin" and test "end". Indeed, these concepts
exist in JUnit formality under the "setUp" and "tierDown" methods. I think
it's a mandatory step in a test suite that should be present in each test
type. What do you think about it and i'm sorry if it has already been
submitted as a feature enhancment.
Regards.
BQ.

Yes, i'm aware about this. What i meant was to introduce this concept in
the TPTP model. Setup and TearDown methods are not specifical to JUnit
tests. Setup and Teardown (or whatever, close, end, finish, etc.) steps
should be, in my opinion, present in the TPTP behavior model as mandatory
steps, i.e. for all test types (Web, Manual, auto gui, etc.) and then
mapped to the chosen technology.

Hi Bertrand,
This can be modeled using the current behavioral model by creating a
test for each setup and tear down and reference these 'tests' before and
after the actual test invocation.
If this solution is not suitable, please feel free to open a TPTP
enhancement.

This solution is a workaround, nothing more. I agree that it's not
mandatory to have a global "begin" and "end" step in a test suite.
Moreover, it's easily implemented in JUnit by using the TestSetup wrapper
on the Hyades test suite and providing global setUp and tearDown methods.
I was just proposing this enhancment as the TPTP model is really pertinent
and, in my opinion, it lacks these two steps, but it's ok =)

BQ.
