/**
 * This interface can be implemented by tests that want to know if they are being run concurrently. It provides
 * lifecycle notification events to tell the test implementation when test threads are being created and destroyed.
 * This can assist tests in creating and destroying resources that exist over the life of a test thread. A single
 * test thread can excute the same test many times, and often it is convenient to keep resources, for example network
 * connections, open over many test calls.
