📚 Description
By removing the call to the deprecated setUp/tearDown functions and modifying the implementation of the execute_function_if_exists and unset_if_exists helpers, I've managed to reduce the execution time of the library's own tests by around 15% in my local environment.
To calculate these times, I have been running the following script while making changes and taking an average of the times:
After all the changes, the results I have obtained from main vs this branch are as follows:

Removing the deprecations meant a reduction of about 5%, and modifying the implementation of the helpers accounted for the remaining 10% reduction.
