====== Fixtures ======

Fixture is a defined and reliable context for the [[software_testing|tests]]. 

It is useful because of:
  * The reuse of the arrangement code.
  * A single initial state for a group of tests.
  * Simplification and reduction of tests.

==== Best practices ====
  - The fixtures should be minimal — just what is needed for the tests.
  - Use SetUp/Teardown to clear resources.
  - In Python and Go, it is convenient to use yield/defer to free up resources.
