Curdled Test Fixtures
^^^^^
**Definition:**

* Where there’s an inappropriate union of tests in the same fixture, or splitting into multiple fixtures where one would be better


**Code Example:**

.. code-block:: java

  class MyTest {
    // some test input or expected output
    private static final SomeObject COMPLEX_DATA = new ...;

    private Thing whatWeAreTesting = new ...;

    // ... other resources

    @BeforeEach
    void beforeEach() {
        // some additional setup
    }
    @AfterEach
    void afterEach() {
        // some tidy up
    }

    @Test
    void testOne() { ... }
}
