Junit before class ( non static )

Question

Are there any best practices to get Junit execute a function once in a test file , and it should also not be static.

like @BeforeClass on non static fun

Answer 1

The article discuss 2 very nice solutions for this problem:

1. "clean" junit with custom Runner (using interface but you could extend it with a custom annotation e.g. @BeforeInstance)
2. Spring execution listeners as mentioned by Espen before.
