My only question here is whether assertions (not expectations) are OK within the exit/cleanup handler. That said, it wouldn't be clear whether we should try to continue cleaning up after every failure, so probably it is reasonable to not do that. But, I did see that at least the clock tests currently use assertions inside the init function. And, in those tests, if the context allocation fails the exit handler will dereference the NULL pointer. So, nothing for this patch, but maybe it would make sense to mark tests as failed (or print a warning) if they use assertions inside init, exit or cleanup handlers?
