# Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## How do I run global setup/teardown only if tests will be run?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Write a custom [event listener](event-listeners.md#top) and place the
|
||
|
|
global setup/teardown code into the `testRun*` events.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## How do I clean up global state between running different tests?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Write a custom [event listener](event-listeners.md#top) and place the
|
||
|
|
cleanup code into either `testCase*` or `testCasePartial*` events,
|
||
|
|
depending on how often the cleanup needs to happen.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Why cannot I derive from the built-in reporters?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
They are not made to be overriden, in that we do not attempt to maintain
|
||
|
|
a consistent internal state if a member function is overriden, and by
|
||
|
|
forbidding users from using them as a base class, we can refactor them
|
||
|
|
as needed later.
