Is there an alternative to RSpec's before(:suite) and after(:suite) in MiniTest?

I suspect that a custom test runner is in order, however I cannot imagine it is not a common requirement, so somebody has probably implemented in. :-)

There are setup() and teardown() methods available. The documentation also lists before() and after() as being available.

Edit: Are you looking to run something before each test or before or after the whole suite is finished?
