# Life-Cycle Methods Each style has its own life-cycle methods you can discover in their primers. They are callbacks that TestBox calls at specific points in time of testing. They are a great way to setup or teardown things before the entire testing suite or one test case. Here is a short synopsis for each style. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://testbox.ortusbooks.com/v2.x-1/in-depth/life-cycle-methods.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
