Exploring test setup and teardown
As tests can be quite long and contain a lot of repetitive actions, TestCafe has a way to optimize this with test setup and teardown.
Setup is usually done by executing a number of specific functions (also known as hooks) before a fixture or test starts (including fixture.before, fixture.beforeEach, and test.before).
Teardown is usually done by executing a number of specific functions after a fixture or test is completed (including fixture.after, fixture.afterEach, and test.after).
There are six methods for using hooks in TestCafe.
The first two (fixture.before and fixture.after) do not have access to the tested page and thus should be used to perform server-side operations, such as preparing the tested application's server or pre-creating some test data in the database:
fixture.beforecan be used to specify actions that should be executed before the first test in a fixture starts (https://devexpress.github.io/testcafe/documentation...
