Is there anything like @BeforeSpek or @AfterSpek

[stoyicker]

I've been reading #115 where this are mentions about statements for before and after group. The problem is that the intention with that one seems to be exposing an extension api. Will writing an extension be needed to add Spek-wide before/after statements?

[hhariri]

No. This is already available. You can use onBefore/After Test

I was after something that runs only once for the whole spek, not for every test

The 1.1 EAP now has changed behaviour to be like that.

Alright thanks.

@stoyicker , in the 1.1 eap xxxEach were renamed to xxxEachTest to match the actual behaviour. We could add beforeEach and afterEach which will execute before and after a group, respectively. Since a spek is still a group, adding it at the top most level is essentially the same as BeforeSpek and AfterSpek.

I support the suggestion of adding wrappers to run around groups so that using them at top level would enclose the whole Spek - it's basically what I was after and I really believe that writing group-level initialization and teardown should be supported as is already the case for individual tests with xxxEachTest - although I'd like to take the chance and ask to please have them called more explicitly, something like beforeGroup and afterGroup. And thanks for listening!

+1 on beforeGroup and afterGroup. Going to include this in the next release (w/c will be sometime this week)
