+The major feature added in v8.2.0 is addition of support for [_global fixtures_](https://mochajs.org/#global-fixtures).
 
-While Mocha has always had the ability to run setup and teardown via a hook (e.g., a `before()` at the top level of a test file) when running tests in serial, Mocha v8.0.0 added support for parallel runs. Parallel runs are *incompatible* with this strategy; e.g., a top-level `before()` would only run for the file in which it was defined.

Parallel runs are _incompatible_ with this strategy; e.g., a top-level `before()` would only run for the file in which it was defined.
 
-With [global fixtures](https://mochajs.org/#global-fixtures), Mocha can now perform user-defined setup and teardown *regardless* of mode, and these fixtures are guaranteed to run *once and only once*. This holds for parallel mode, serial mode, and even "watch" mode (the teardown will run once you hit Ctrl-C, just before Mocha finally exits). Tasks such as starting and stopping servers are well-suited to global fixtures, but not sharing resources--global fixtures do *not* share context with your test files (but they do share context with each other).
