 Support for discovering tests and test suites using reflection.
 
-It follows the xUnit style where each class is a test suite, and each method
-with the name prefix "test_" is a single text.
+This package follows the xUnit style where each class is a test suite, and each
+method with the name prefix `test_` is a single test.
 
-Methods with names starting with "test_" are are run using test() function with
-the corresponding name. If the class defines methods setUp() or tearDown(),
-they are executed before / after each test correspondingly, even the test fails.
+Methods with names starting with `test_` are run using the `test()` function with

-Methods with names starting with "solo_test_" are run using solo_test() function.
+Methods with names starting with `solo_test_` are run using the `solo_test()` function.
 
-Methods with names starting with "fail_" are expected to fail.
+Methods with names starting with `fail_` are expected to fail.

+Methods with names starting with `solo_fail_` are run using the `solo_test()` function

-Method returning Future class instances are asynchronous, so tearDown() is
-executed after the returned Future completes.
