@API(status=EXPERIMENTAL,

public enum Lifespan
extends java.lang.Enum<Lifespan>

Define how long a resource, e.g. the value in a Store with the same identifier, will live:

• For the whole test run
• For the currently running property
• For the currently running try

Any hook or collection of hooks can use this enum to allow the specification of the lifespan of resources from which it is abstracting.
