AVA lets you register hooks that are run before and after your tests. This allows you to run setup and/or teardown code.

`test.before()` registers a hook to be run before the first test in your test file. Similarly `test.after()` registers a hook to be run after the last test. Use `test.after.always()` to register a hook that will **always** run once your tests and other hooks complete. `.always()` hooks run regardless of whether there were earlier failures, so they are ideal for cleanup tasks. There are two exceptions to this however. If you use `--fail-fast` AVA will stop testing as soon as a failure occurs, and it won't run any hooks including the `.always()` hooks. Uncaught exceptions will crash your tests, possibly preventing `.always()` hooks from running.

`test.beforeEach()` registers a hook to be run before each test in your test file. Similarly `test.afterEach()` a hook to be run after each test. Use `test.afterEach.always()` to register an after hook that is called even if other test hooks, or the test itself, fail. `.always()` hooks are ideal for cleanup tasks.

If a test is skipped with the `.skip` modifier, the respective `.beforeEach()` and `.afterEach()` hooks are not run. Likewise, if all tests in a test file are skipped `.before()` and `.after()` hooks for the file are not run. Hooks modified with `.always()` will always run, even if all tests are skipped.

**Note**: If the `--fail-fast` flag is specified, AVA will stop after the first test failure and the `.always` hook will **not** run.

Like `test()` these methods take an optional title and a callback function. The title is shown if your hook fails to execute. The callback is called with an [execution object](#t).
