TearDown Annotation (Developer Preview)

Use the TearDown annotation to mark a cleanup method that runs after the test completes, regardless of pass or fail.

The Apex Integration Tests feature is available as a developer preview in scratch orgs in Summer ’26 (API version 67.0). The feature isn’t generally available unless or until Salesforce announces its general availability in documentation or in press releases or public statements. All commands, parameters, and other features are subject to change or deprecation at any time, with or without notice. Don't implement functionality developed with these commands or tools in your production package.

Note

The annotation is applied to a static method that runs after the integration test completes, regardless of whether the test passed, failed, or threw an exception. Use this annotation to clean up committed test data. The teardown transaction auto-commits at the end of the execution.
