I wasn't necessarily suggesting that the expectation has to be either in the setup block or an `it` block below. I guess I was just being lazy and trying to save on typing ;)

If you want it out of the setup block it could be written as:

```js
beforeEach(function() {
  promise1 = people.fetch();
  promise2 = people.fetch();
  promise2.done(...);
});

it('is the same promise', function() {
  expect(promise1).to.equal(promise2);
});

it('does other stuff', function() {
  ...
});
```
