        Installing
        ----------
        .. code:: bash
        
            $ pip install describe-it
        
        Writing
        -------
        Any module that ends with 'spec' is considered to contain specifications/tests
        for describe_it.
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            $ vim myfirst_spec.py
        
        ...and the content:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            from game import Game
            from describe_it import describe, it, before_each, Fixture
        
            @describe           # This declares a test context.
            def a_game():
                f = Fixture()   # Fixture is a hack to get around Python's
                                # implementation of closures. You can use
                                # other methods, such as nonlocal if you like.
        
                @before_each    # Will be called before each 'it' method.
                def setup():
                    f.game = Game()
        
                @after_each     # Will be called after each 'it' method.
                def teardown():

                @it             # This marks a test method.
                def is_player_ones_turn():
                    # describe_it doesn't come with yet another assertion lib.
                    # Pick any one you like.
                    assert f.game.current_player == 1

                    # Before each 'it' method, any before_each in outer
                    # contexts will be called first. Then this method
                    # will be called.
                    @before_each
                    def setup():
                        f.game.play_round()
