-## Testing Risei
-
-To test Risei, you clone it from a parallel [repository](https://gitlab.com/riseimaker/risei-public.git), install its dependencies, and run its self-tests.   See the full explanation [here](https://deusware.com/risei/index.html#self-testing).

-## Running Tests
-
-Once you have some tests written, you can run them manually:
-
-```bash
-node ./node_modules/risei/index.js
-```
-
-Or write a script in `package.json` that does the same:

-}

 ## Basic collapsing forward example

 Risei collapses values together from partial or full test objects until it has a full test to run.   Every property collapses forward until it is changed or wiped out:

+- Release **3.3.1** (February, 2025) contains this change:

+
 - Release **3.3.0** (January, 2025) adds this change to those of other recent releases:
   - You can now test instance members with the same names as static members using a new `.and` option of `"instance"`.

-- Release **3.0.0** (August, 2024) contained all of these changes:
-  - Asynchronous code with `async` syntax is now supported, with no special test syntax.
-  - **(Breaking change)**&nbsp;  `.from` functions now take `test` and `actual` as parameters, rather than `target` and `test`.
-    - If you need to work with the target of the test (usually an instance of the class being tested), it's available as `test.target`.
-  - You can now call target code more than once in one test using an `.and` of `"poly"` (AKA _poly-calling_).
-
-
-- Release **2.0.0** / **2.0.1** (August, 2024) contained all of these changes:
-  - Risei now can determine automatically if tested methods are static.
-  - You can now directly test properties just like methods.
-    - Risei can also determine automatically if these are static.
-    - Directly tested properties appear in the output in the form `.name`.
-  - You can now spoof properties on the targeted class instance, and static properties on the target class itself.
-  - You can now perform arbitrary operations, if needed, with the two-part `.do` property and one-part `.undo` property.
-  - You can now change test properties without accidentally creating a new test using `.just`.
-  - You can now directly test for `undefined` in `.out` using `this.undef` / `ATestSource.undefSymbol`.
-  - `Error` objects are now compared accurately.
-  - You can now identify member types with `.`, `:`, and `()` in any of `.of`, `.plus`, and `.from`, though it isn't necessary.
-  - **(Breaking change)**&nbsp;  The actual for throw tests is now the entire thrown object (usually an `Error`), rather than the `Error`'s message text.
-  - **(Breaking change)**&nbsp;  `ATestSource` is now a default export, changing its imports from `import { ATestSource } from` to `import ATestSource from`.
-  - Major internal re-engineering.
