Can this be done inline above?

private val context = RuntimeEnvironment.getApplication()
private val clipboardManager = context.getSystemService<ClipboardManager>()
private val worker: ClearClipboardWorker = ClearClipboardWorker(
    appContext = context,
    workerParams = mockk(relaxed = true),
)

or do these tests require a new instance each time?

)
