Yes, but it's better that the next test ensures that the environment is ok for its
tests IMO. This allows to run tests in any order and even to work if a test is stopped
midway.

It's not about setting up for the tests in this class, but leaving a

It's a little bit better to do this in setUp rather than in tearDown, for performance
(Each test is responsible to set up a working state). Why do you say it's bad for performance?
It's actually good in the sense that the next test doesn't necessarily have to do
a set up (but this means that the tests can only be executed in a given order).
The reason I was saying it's a bit less good re perf is because you're going to do
extra work (the last tearDown executed) even if the next tests doesn't care about what
you did in the tear down.
