An ridiculously minimalistic testing framework.

= Check

Check is less testing framework, designed to fit in a single page so you can
manually verify at a glance that it behaves as advertised. Its sole purpose in
life is to be simple enough so that it doesn't need tests of its own. Why is
that important? Because sometimes you're coding something up with sufficient
complexity that it needs tests, and yet you can't use a full-blown testing
framework.

Need an example? You might want to use Check if you're writing a full-blown
testing framework. It breaks the inherent recursion.

== Usage

  class Trivia
    def initialize(fact)
      @fact = fact
    end
    attr_reader :fact
  end

  # In the same file
  if __FILE__ == $0
    require 'check'
    trivia = Trivia.new('Rubies are red')
    check('Ruby trivia'){trivia.fact == 'Rubies are red'}
  end

  # Or, in another file
  require 'check'
  require 'trivia'
  trivia = Trivia.new('Rubies are red')
  check('Ruby trivia'){trivia.fact == 'Rubies are red'}
