Description

teardown methods are executed inside out which is good (reversed order compared to setups) which is good. test_teardown methods however run outside in which is wrong... See example in attached source test_fixtureorder.py.zip Part of output of the code:

@setUp main layer
@testSetUp main layer
@testmain
@testTearDown main layer
@setUp layer A
@testSetUp main layer
@testSetUp layer A
@testA
@testTearDown main layer <-- problem is here "testTearDown layer A" should run before
@testTearDown layer A

Research direction
Investigate the ordering of test teardown methods in nose2's test suite runner. The issue indicates that teardowns are reversed correctly but test teardown is not. Examine the relevant code in nose2's test loading and execution, likely in the runner module. Check linked PRs or comments for any previous attempts or discussions.
