Description
Here is a good write up of the problem https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43585325/clojure-test-global-fixtures.
TLDR is that things like connecting to a DB are slow and we don't want to do it for every namespace.
An alternative tool, circleci.test has added support for this. https://github.com/circleci/circleci.test#global-fixtures
Is there any plan to add something like this for koacha?

Research direction
Start by reading the linked Stack Overflow write-up and the circleci.test global-fixtures documentation, then inspect Kaocha's existing fixture and test-runner entry points. Define how fixtures should be shared across namespaces and what lifecycle and configuration behavior would count as complete; the issue does not name specific files or tests.
