PHPUnit Zend_Test_PHPUnit_DatabaseTestCase fails to truncate table

I am setting up some db integration testing using Zend_Test_PHPUnit_DatabaseTestCase.

My tests run but the db tables do not get truncated so an add test fails assertion - as the xml I provide as a dataset does not match the db can anybody suggest why

TestCase

  class ArtworkDBTest extends DatabaseTestCase
    { 
public function testAddArtwork()
            {

                $data=array("artwork_name"=>'test',"description"=>'test',"imgpath"=>'test',"size"=>'test',"price_information"=>'test',"category"=>1,"artwork_order"=>1);

                $mockedLog=$this->getMock("Log",array("log"));

                $artwork = new shop_Artwork($mockedLog,Zend_Db_Table_Abstract::getDefaultAdapter()); 

                $artwork->addArtwork($data); 


                $this->assertDataSetsMatchXML('artwork-add.xml',  $dataSet);


            }
}

The answer was running parent::setUp(); inside the test class's setUp() method
