Hi Kotest-ers 🙂
Today I've seen a weird (at least to me) usage of beforeTest/afterTest , as follows, at context level.

ShouldSpec {
   beforeTest {
          ...
   }

   afterTest {
           ...
   }

   context("context) {
      beforeTest {
          ...
      }

      should() {
          ...
      }
      
      afterTest {
           ...
      }
    }
}

TBH honest I didn't know it was possible...
Have I missed something in the documentation?
gratitude thank you

you can do that, but probably makes your tests complicated to follow

So it allows setting up common things only for the given context.
I didn't know it was possible.

But I see your point about the perceived complexity nod 🙂
