# XCTestCase Lifecycle Management

Paul Himes

December 27, 2023

## About this video

Are you an iOS engineer working on your codebase's test suite? Have you considered your test case lifecycle? Take a listen, this video is for you!

Unit tests can be considered a big success when confirming the expected results of your product's code. However, a good unit test is only as good as its longevity and performance, so you'll need a well-managed test case lifecycle.

By doing this correctly, you can limit memory use, avoid side effects and ensure the test suite runs smoothly! Listen in as we offer up XCTestCase functions (using real-time demos!) to help you on the path improving your test case lifecycles!
