Minitest doesn't install an at_exit hook by default. I think the
expectation is that Rake tasks, test helpers, or other project
infrastructure should activate the autorun magic explicitly. If you
want to have tests in a single file run as they would in test/unit,
adding this at the top should help:

MiniTest::Unit.autorun
