In a framework like Spek, are all mocks (e.g. with _mockk_) initialized all at once, on start up? I would have hoped that mocks were scoped to their corresponding `describe` or `it` blocks. As it is,  even if I run a single `it` block test in Intellij, all the mocks across all blocks are being initialized. Is this a consequence of putting the _entire_ test suite into the constructor of my test class (which seems bonkers to me)?

I've achieved the result I want with some `beforeEachTest` blocks.

have you looked at <https://spekframework.org/core-concepts/#scope-values>?

you can use `val myMock by memoized {mock(Something::class.java)} ` but you should check the docs in 1st place to understand how SPEK engine works
