I think this should be testing that $second_nested_after is empty because I'd expect the after hook to run after this test?

If this is correct, I'll probably move some of the code from Test::Spec into Test::Spec::Context to make it easier to run the "after all" tests so don't worry about changing the code. Just checking my understanding :)

You are correct about that, but correcting the test makes it fail, so something is not quite right.
I am investigating further.

Commit 90080db should correct this error. There was a flaw in the logic when describes had multiple examples.

lovely, thanks! I'll try to get to this in the next couple of days (sorry, working late most of this week)

Thanks, this is a nice improvement! |

Anything I more I can do on this one? |
Current implementation means that all the "after all" tear down action happen during global destruction. This means that the "after all" for a nested describe is not run before the examples in a subsequent nested describe. This adjusted implementation will "after all" blocks after the last test within their context, but before the examples of any subsequent contexts. This does come at a performance cost, as after ever test we need to check to see if the next test (if there is one) is in a sibling or parent context. However by my observation, this performance cost is negligible in the context or running unit tests.
It is not as graceful a solution as allowing global destruction to trigger the "after all" tasks, but it does result in execution of these blocks at what I'd consider to be the expected time during execution.
