Playwright beforeAll *after* a fixture

I have a login fixture that I want to run at the beginning of every test in the repository. I then want to do a beforeAll and afterAll script (supply and then delete data) to run before/after a group of tests in a describe block. However, the beforeAll runs before the login fixture.

Am I approaching this from the wrong angle?

Check globalSetup and Auth

Depending on your project needs, you could add your data by using setup and teardown project dependencies in your playwright.config.ts.

So your config could include something like this - my chromium project has a dependency on 'setup'. So 'setup' will be run first and has tests to setup my data, then 'chromium' tests run, and then 'teardown' tests to nuke your data.

projects: [
    {
      name: 'setup',
      testDir: 'tests/setup/',
      teardown: 'teardown',
    },
	{
      name: 'teardown',
      testMatch: /tests/teardown/,
    },
    {
      name: 'chromium',
      dependencies: ['setup'],
      use: {
        browserName: 'chromium',
        headless: false,
        screenshot: 'only-on-failure',
        trace: 'on',
        launchOptions: {
          args: ['--disable-extensions '],
        },
      },
    },
  ],
