[issue11798] Test cases not garbage collected after run

[Michael Foord]

Michael Foord added the comment:

Ah right, my mistake. Before setUp there shouldn't be test state. (Although tests are free to do whatever they want in __init__ too and I've seen plenty of TestCase subclasses using __init__ when they should be using setUp.)

Essentially though _cleanup is a backwards compatibility feature - and suites that need _cleanup as a public api are already living without testcase dict cleanup.
