   @marcoabreu : we need teardown to free up memory allocated once each test 
finishes. The reason of doing this is to ensure that memory is freed up after 
each test run, which wasn't happening before. These tests require more memory, 
running all of them in a single execution was causing out of memory error since 
memory was not being freed up in time(as observed using `htop`). Therefore we 
need to call clear cache and teardown after individual test runs. Let me know 
if it makes sense.
