-_A test framework_
-===================
-_A_ test framework is a simplistic, magic-free library providing unit-testing facilities with a compact, bdd-style syntax.
-
-In contrast to other bdd-style test frameworks, however, it doesn't allow nesting suites in each other in order to test the SUT(subject under test) in different states. Instead, the framework relies on folder structure to describe the state which the SUT currently is. Suite names are generated based on their filenames. As a result there will be many small test files instead of few big ones with test suites nested in each other.
-
-Test setup -- the "Arrange-Act" part of suites, is separated from the "Assert" part. This way the same setup can be used across different suites. Test setups can, of course, be chained.
-
-
-Examples below can be found here: https://github.com/alfateam/a_demo
-
-Example
----------
-The test runner ( _a_ ) will search for all files named when*.js in current directory and below.
-
-Given the following file structure
-
-- demo/
-	- counter.js
-	- counter_specs/
-		- new/
-			- increment.js
-			- when_incremented.js
-		- new.js
-		- when_new.js
-
-__counter.js__
-
-```js
-module.exports = function () {
-	var counter = {
-		value: 0,
-		increment: function() { value++; }
-	};
-
-	return counter;
-}
-```
-
-__counter_specs/new.js__
-
-```js
-function act(c) {
-	var createCounter = require('../counter');
-	c.sut = createCounter();
-}
-module.exports = act;
-```
-
-__counter_specs/when_new.js__
-
-```js
-var c = {}; //test context object
-var when = require('a').when;
-
-when('./new', c). //set up
-	it('should be an object').
-		assertEqual('object', typeof c.sut)
-	it('should have value equal to zero').
-		assertEqual(0, c.sut.value).
-	it('should fail just for fun').
-		assertFail('error message');
-
-```
-
-__counter_specs/new/increment.js__
-
-```js
-function act(c) {
-	c.sut.increment();
-}
-act.base = '../new';
-module.exports = act;
-```
-
-__counter_specs/new/when_incremented.js__
-
-```js
-var c = {};
-var when = require('a').when;
-
-when('./increment', c).
-	it('should have value equal to 1').
-		assertEqual(1, c.sut.value);
-
-```
-
-In demo directory run _a_
-
-	user@localhost:~/a_demo $ a
-
-	 » counter_specs » new
-
-	  ✓ should be an object
-	  ✓ should have value equal to zero
-	  ✘ should fail just for fun
-
-	 » counter_specs » new » increment
-
-	  ✓ should have value equal to 1
-
-	========== Summary =============

-	------------
-
-	suites: 2, passed: 3, failed: 1
-
-Async test support
-------------------
-modified act file should like like this:
-
-```js
-
-function act(c) {
-	...
-	return c.sut(c.arguments); //returns promise
-}
-
-```
-
-or
-
-```js
-
-async function act(c) {
-	...
-	await c.sut(c.arguments);
-}
-
-```
-test file should look like this
-```js
-var when = require('a').when;
-var c = {};
-
-when(c).then(it => {
-	it('....').assertXXXX();
-});
-
-```

-"When" can resolve act by camcelCase convention. If test class is named "whenFoo.js", it will assume "foo.js" is the act.  
-
-__0.3.0__  
-expectArray is deprecated, use expect instead.  
-expect now handles structs - equality is acheived when same propertyNames and equal leaf properties.
-
-__0.2.9__   
-"When" can resolve act by convention. If test class is named "when_foo.js", it will assume "foo.js" is the act.  
-Example, given when_foo.js:  
-```js
-var c = {};
-var when = require('a').when;
-
-when(c). //equivalent to: when('./foo',c)....
-	it('should have value equal to 1').
-		assertEqual(1, c.sut.value);

+
+_A test framework_
+===================
+<b>From version 3.0.0 this is in a separate package: [npmjs.com/package/a_test](https://npmjs.com/package/a_test)</b>  
+_A_ test framework is a simplistic, magic-free library providing unit-testing facilities with a compact, bdd-style syntax.
+
+In contrast to other bdd-style test frameworks, it doesn't allow nesting suites in each other in order to test the SUT(subject under test) in different states. Instead, the framework relies on folder structure to describe the state. The SUT currently has that folder structure. Suite names are generated based on their filenames. As a result, there will be many small test files without nested test suites instead of a few big test files with nested test suites.
+
+Test setup, the "Arrange-Act" part of suites, is separated from the "Assert" part. This way the same setup can be used across different suites. Test setups can be chained.
+
+
+Examples below can be found here: https://github.com/alfateam/a_demo
+
+Example
+---------
+The test runner ( _a_ ) will search for all files named 'when*.js' in the current and sub-directories.
+
+Given the following file structure
+
+- demo/
+	- counter.js
+	- counter_specs/
+		- new/
+			- increment.js
+			- when_incremented.js
+		- new.js
+		- when_new.js
+
+__counter.js__
+
+```js
+module.exports = function () {
+	var counter = {
+		value: 0,
+		increment: function() { value++; }
+	};
+
+	return counter;
+}
+```
+
+__counter_specs/new.js__
+
+```js
+function act(c) {
+	var createCounter = require('../counter');
+	c.sut = createCounter();
+}
+module.exports = act;
+```
+
+__counter_specs/when_new.js__
+
+```js
+var c = {}; //test context object
+var when = require('a').when;
+
+when('./new', c). //set up
+	it('should be an object').
+		assertEqual('object', typeof c.sut)
+	it('should have value equal to zero').
+		assertEqual(0, c.sut.value).
+	it('should fail just for fun').
+		assertFail('error message');
+
+```
+
+__counter_specs/new/increment.js__
+
+```js
+function act(c) {
+	c.sut.increment();
+}
+act.base = '../new';
+module.exports = act;
+```
+
+__counter_specs/new/when_incremented.js__
+
+```js
+var c = {};
+var when = require('a').when;
+
+when('./increment', c).
+	it('should have value equal to 1').
+		assertEqual(1, c.sut.value);
+
+```
+
+__In demo directory, run _a_ __
+
+	user@localhost:~/a_demo $ a

+	  ✓ should be an object
+	  ✓ should have value equal to zero

+    	at require (module.js:378:17)
+	------------
+
+	suites: 2, passed: 3, failed: 1
+
+Async test support
+------------------
+Modified act files should look like this:
+
+```js
+
+function act(c) {
+	...
+	return c.sut(c.arguments); //returns promise
+}
+
+```
+
+or
+
+```js
+
+async function act(c) {
+	...
+	await c.sut(c.arguments);
+}
+
+```
+Test file should look like this:
+```js
+var when = require('a').when;
+var c = {};
+
+when(c).then(it => {
+	it('....').assertXXXX();
+});
+
+```

+
+__1.0.1__  
+ExpectAnything() can be nested - for backwards compatability only.  
+__1.0.0__  
+ExpectAnything() no longer expects only one argument, but arbitary number of arguments. Use ignore() if you want to ignore a single argument.  
+__0.4.8__  
+Executable test runner "when" is deprecated. Use "a" instead.  
+__0.4.7__  
+Inconclusive tests are accounted as failed in exit code.  
+__0.4.6__  
+Fixed memory leak in test runner.  
+__0.4.5__  
+Display stack trace of inconclusive suites.  
+Use dependency [deferred][2] instead of [promise][3].  
+__0.4.4__  
+Introduced promise mocks.  
+Tests with failing setup are reported as inconclusive.  
+Bugfix: Test names no longer converted to lowercase.  
+__0.4.3__  
+Can reset expectations on mocks by mock.reset.  
+Renamed expectRequire.clear to expectRequire.reset. Same goes for for requireMock.  
+__0.4.2__  
+Can clear expectations on require by using expectRequire.clear.  
+__0.4.1__  
+"When" can accept function instead of separate act file. See example in [demo][1] repo.  
+__0.4.0__  
+Cleaner output on failed assertions.  
+__0.3.9__   
+Can inherit act by convention. See examples in [demo][0] repo.  
+__0.3.8__  
+Cleaner stack trace on mock errors.  
+__0.3.7__  
+Test path can be sent as argument to test runner.  
+If no path is specified, the test runner will run from current directory.  
+Example: ```when c:/devel/foo/testFolder```  
+__0.3.6__  
+Exit code is equal to number of failing tests.  
+__0.3.5__  
+Tests files are run in hierarchical order from top to bottom.  
+__0.3.4__  
+Cache was cleared at wrong time. This could lead to overflow when running large amount of tests.  
+Make sure you update globally (npm update a -g) to get this fix, not only the local dependency.  
+__0.3.3__  
+Error in documentation about structs.  
+__0.3.2__  
+Mocks can be set up to throw.  
+__0.3.1__  
+"when" deletes all cached modules before executing. This ensures tests are isolated.  
+ignore is alias for expectAnything.  
+"When" can resolve act by camcelCase convention. If test class is named "whenFoo.js", it will assume "foo.js" is the act.  
+
+__0.3.0__  
+expectArray is deprecated, use expect instead.  
+expect now handles structs - equality is acheived when same propertyNames and equal leaf properties.
+
+__0.2.9__   
+"When" can resolve act by convention. If test class is named "when_foo.js", it will assume "foo.js" is the act.  
+Example, given when_foo.js:  
+```js
+var c = {};
+var when = require('a').when;
+
+when(c). //equivalent to: when('./foo',c)....
+	it('should have value equal to 1').
+		assertEqual(1, c.sut.value);
