Currently, following test example succeeds:

  context 'test' do
    let(:test) { double }

    it 'expects some message' do
      expect(test).to receive(:xxx)
    end
    
    after do
      test.xxx
    end
  end

It is also possible to set expectations in a before block.

This behavior is a little confusing, and in fact can lead to some problems, when we do a clean up in a after block. Example is https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/-/jobs/23223257 - we expect some messages sent to some object, but we receive more messages since we trigger a clean up in after block.

It does not seem right according to how I understand before and after semantics, but I might be wrong.

Does it warrant an issue in upstream project? 🤔

What do you think @rymai @rspeicher?
