Hi Peter,

Do you use test suites?

as far as I understand it,  you would want to use test suites to handle  
test resources.
There is

TestSuite >> run
	(...)
	[self run: result] sunitEnsure: [self resources do: [:each | each  
reset]].
	^result

which should do the cleanup at the end.

Stef wrote a nice intro on SUnit on:
http://www.iam.unibe.ch/~ducasse/Programmez/OnTheWeb/Eng-Art8-SUnit- 
V1.pdf

As far as I can tell, there is no test/example which clarifies that  
behavior, so it would be great if you could enhance the
SUnit-Tests accordingly.

Hope this helps,

Markus
