+    description: The `before` function was added to TestContext.
 -->
 
 An instance of `TestContext` is passed to each test function in order to
 interact with the test runner. However, the `TestContext` constructor is not
 exposed as part of the API.
 
+### `context.before([fn][, options])`

+<!-- YAML

+-->
+
+* `fn` {Function|AsyncFunction} The hook function. The first argument
+  to this function is a [`TestContext`][] object. If the hook uses callbacks,
+  the callback function is passed as the second argument. **Default:** A no-op
+  function.
+* `options` {Object} Configuration options for the hook. The following
+  properties are supported:
+  * `signal` {AbortSignal} Allows aborting an in-progress hook.
+  * `timeout` {number} A number of milliseconds the hook will fail after.
+    If unspecified, subtests inherit this value from their parent.
+    **Default:** `Infinity`.
+
+This function is used to create a hook running before
+subtest of the current test.
