Michal Kwiatkowski and I just released pinocchio 0.1, a collection of plugins for nose. It's got my figleaf section recording plugin, figleafsections, and it's also got Michal's spec plugin, which lets you write tests like this:

class TestFoobar:
    def test_is_a_singleton(self):
        pass
    def test_can_be_automatically_documented(self):
        pass

which, during the test run, will generate the following output:

Foobar
- is a singleton
- can be automatically documented

i.e. it will generate a "specification".

Pretty cool, eh?

Anyway, check it out if you like neat little hacks.

In my opinion, docstring is the correct place for these
specifications, not method names!
