##Installation

To install mamba, just:

``` sh
pip install mamba
```

##Overview

```python

from mamba import describe, context, before, after, pending

with describe('mamba'):
def it_should_be_tested_with_mamba_itself():
pass

with context('when listing features'):
def it_supports_example_groups():
pass

with context('hooks'):
@before.all
def run_once_before_specs():
pass

@before.each
def run_before_every_spec():
pass

@after.each
def run_after_every_spec():
pass

@after.all
def run_after_all_specs():
pass

with context('pending tests'):
with pending(context('when running pending contexts')):
def it_should_not_run_specs_under_a_pending_context():
pass

@pending
def it_should_not_run_a_spec_marked_with_pending_decorator():
pass

def it_should_highlight_slow_tests():
sleep(10)

with context(ASampleClass) as _:
def it_should_have_an_instance_in_subject_property():
expect(_.subject).to.be.a(ASampleClass)

with context('when writing assertions'):
def it_should_be_usable_with_plain_assertions():
assert True

def it_should_be_usable_with_hamcrest_style_assertions():
assert_that(True, is_(True))

def it_should_be_usable_with_should_dsl_style_assertions():
True |should| be(True)

def it_should_be_usable_with_sure_style_assertions():
True.should.be.true

expect(True).to.be.true

def it_should_be_assertion_framework_agnostic():
pass

with context('when using tests doubles'):
def it_should_be_usable_with_mockito():
stub = mock()
when(stub).is_usable_with_mockito().thenReturn(True)

expect(stub.is_usable_with_mockito()).to.be.true

def it_should_be_usable_with_doublex():
with Spy() as sender:
sender.is_usable_with_doublex().returns(True)

assert_that(sender.is_usable_with_doublex(), is_(True))
assert_that(sender.is_usable_with_doublex, called())

def it_should_be_usable_with_mock():
is_usable_with_mock = Mock(return_value=True)

assert mock()

def it_should_be_test_doubles_framework_agnostic():
pass
