+## Behavior-driven development
+
+With the `bdd.ts` module you can write your tests in a familiar format for
+grouping tests and adding setup/teardown hooks used by other JavaScript testing
+frameworks like Jasmine, Jest, and Mocha.
+
+The `describe` function creates a block that groups together several related
+tests. The `it` function registers an individual test case. The `describe` and
+`it` functions have similar call signatures to `Deno.test`, making it easy to
+migrate from using `Deno.test`.
+
+### Hooks
+
+There are 4 types of hooks available for test suites. A test suite can have
+multiples of each type of hook, they will be called in the order that they are
+registered. The `afterEach` and `afterAll` hooks will be called whether or not
+the test case passes. The all hooks will be called once for the whole group
+while the each hooks will be called for each individual test case.
+
+- `beforeAll`: Runs before all of the tests in the test suite.
+- `afterAll`: Runs after all of the tests in the test suite finish.
+- `beforeEach`: Runs before each of the individual test cases in the test suite.
+- `afterEach`: Runs after each of the individual test cases in the test suite.
+
+If a hook is registered at the top level, a global test suite will be registered
+and all tests will belong to it. Hooks registered at the top level must be
+registered before any individual test cases or test suites.
+
+### Focusing tests
+
+If you would like to only run specific individual test cases, you can do so by
+calling `it.only` instead of `it`. If you would like to only run specific test
+suites, you can do so by calling `describe.only` instead of `describe`.
+
+There is one limitation to this when the individual test cases or test suites
+belong to another test suite, they will be the only ones to run within the top
+level test suite.
+
+### Ignoring tests
+
+If you would like to not run specific individual test cases, you can do so by
+calling `it.ignore` instead of `it`. If you would like to only run specific test
+suites, you can do so by calling `describe.ignore` instead of `describe`.
+
+### Sanitization options
+
+Like `Deno.TestDefinition`, the `DescribeDefinition` and `ItDefinition` have
+sanitization options. They work in the same way.
+
+- sanitizeExit: Ensure the test case does not prematurely cause the process to
+  exit, for example via a call to Deno.exit. Defaults to true.
+- sanitizeOps: Check that the number of async completed ops after the test is
+  the same as number of dispatched ops. Defaults to true.
+- sanitizeResources: Ensure the test case does not "leak" resources - ie. the
+  resource table after the test has exactly the same contents as before the
+  test. Defaults to true.
+
+### Permissions option
+
+Like `Deno.TestDefinition`, the `DescribeDefintion` and `ItDefinition` have a
+permissions option. They specify the permissions that should be used to run an
+individual test case or test suite. Set this to "inherit" to keep the calling
+thread's permissions. Set this to "none" to revoke all permissions.
+
+Defaults to "inherit".
+
+There is currently one limitation to this, you cannot use the permissions option
+on an individual test case or test suite that belongs to another test suite.
+
+### Migrating and usage
+
+To migrate from `Deno.test`, all you have to do is replace `Deno.test` with
+`it`. If you are using the step API, you will need to replace `Deno.test` with
+describe and steps with `describe` or `it`. The callback for individual test
+cases can be syncronous or asyncronous.
+
+Below is an example of a test file using `Deno.test` and `t.step`. In the
+following sections there are examples of how it can be converted to using nested
+test grouping, flat test grouping, and a mix of both.
+
+```ts
+// https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/bdd_examples/user_test.ts
+import {
+  assertEquals,
+  assertStrictEquals,
+  assertThrows,
+} from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/asserts.ts";
+import { User } from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/bdd_examples/user.ts";
+
+Deno.test("User.users initially empty", () => {
+  assertEquals(User.users.size, 0);
+});
+
+Deno.test("User constructor", () => {
+  try {
+    const user = new User("Kyle");
+    assertEquals(user.name, "Kyle");
+    assertStrictEquals(User.users.get("Kyle"), user);
+  } finally {
+    User.users.clear();
+  }
+});
+
+Deno.test("User age", async (t) => {
+  const user = new User("Kyle");
+
+  await t.step("getAge", () => {
+    assertThrows(() => user.getAge(), Error, "Age unknown");
+    user.age = 18;
+    assertEquals(user.getAge(), 18);
+  });
+
+  await t.step("setAge", () => {
+    user.setAge(18);
+    assertEquals(user.getAge(), 18);
+  });
+});
+```
+
+#### Nested test grouping
+
+Tests created within the callback of a `describe` function call will belong to
+the new test suite it creates. The hooks can be created within it or be added to
+the options argument for describe.
+
+```ts
+// https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/bdd_examples/user_nested_test.ts
+import {
+  assertEquals,
+  assertStrictEquals,
+  assertThrows,
+} from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/asserts.ts";
+import {
+  afterEach,
+  beforeEach,
+  describe,
+  it,
+} from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/bdd.ts";
+import { User } from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/bdd_examples/user.ts";
+
+describe("User", () => {
+  it("users initially empty", () => {
+    assertEquals(User.users.size, 0);
+  });
+
+  it("constructor", () => {
+    try {
+      const user = new User("Kyle");
+      assertEquals(user.name, "Kyle");
+      assertStrictEquals(User.users.get("Kyle"), user);
+    } finally {
+      User.users.clear();
+    }
+  });
+
+  describe("age", () => {
+    let user: User;
+
+    beforeEach(() => {
+      user = new User("Kyle");
+    });
+
+    afterEach(() => {
+      User.users.clear();
+    });
+
+    it("getAge", function () {
+      assertThrows(() => user.getAge(), Error, "Age unknown");
+      user.age = 18;
+      assertEquals(user.getAge(), 18);
+    });
+
+    it("setAge", function () {
+      user.setAge(18);
+      assertEquals(user.getAge(), 18);
+    });
+  });
+});
+```
+
+#### Flat test grouping
+
+The `describe` function returns a unique symbol that can be used to reference
+the test suite for adding tests to it without having to create them within a
+callback. The gives you the ability to have test grouping without any extra
+indentation in front of the grouped tests.
+
+```ts
+// https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/bdd_examples/user_flat_test.ts
+import {
+  assertEquals,
+  assertStrictEquals,
+  assertThrows,
+} from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/asserts.ts";
+import {
+  describe,
+  it,
+} from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/bdd.ts";
+import { User } from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/bdd_examples/user.ts";
+
+const userTests = describe("User");
+
+it(userTests, "users initially empty", () => {
+  assertEquals(User.users.size, 0);
+});
+
+it(userTests, "constructor", () => {
+  try {
+    const user = new User("Kyle");
+    assertEquals(user.name, "Kyle");
+    assertStrictEquals(User.users.get("Kyle"), user);
+  } finally {
+    User.users.clear();
+  }
+});
+
+const ageTests = describe({
+  name: "age",
+  suite: userTests,
+  beforeEach(this: { user: User }) {
+    this.user = new User("Kyle");
+  },
+  afterEach() {
+    User.users.clear();
+  },
+});
+
+it(ageTests, "getAge", function () {
+  const { user } = this;
+  assertThrows(() => user.getAge(), Error, "Age unknown");
+  user.age = 18;
+  assertEquals(user.getAge(), 18);
+});
+
+it(ageTests, "setAge", function () {
+  const { user } = this;
+  user.setAge(18);
+  assertEquals(user.getAge(), 18);
+});
+```
+
+#### Mixed test grouping
+
+Both nested test grouping and flat test grouping can be used together. This can
+be useful if you'd like to create deep groupings without all the extra
+indentation in front of each line.
+
+```ts
+// https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/bdd_examples/user_mixed_test.ts
+import {
+  assertEquals,
+  assertStrictEquals,
+  assertThrows,
+} from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/asserts.ts";
+import {
+  describe,
+  it,
+} from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/bdd.ts";
+import { User } from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/testing/bdd_examples/user.ts";
+
+describe("User", () => {
+  it("users initially empty", () => {
+    assertEquals(User.users.size, 0);
+  });
+
+  it("constructor", () => {
+    try {
+      const user = new User("Kyle");
+      assertEquals(user.name, "Kyle");
+      assertStrictEquals(User.users.get("Kyle"), user);
+    } finally {
+      User.users.clear();
+    }
+  });
+
+  const ageTests = describe({
+    name: "age",
+    beforeEach(this: { user: User }) {
+      this.user = new User("Kyle");
+    },
+    afterEach() {
+      User.users.clear();
+    },
+  });
+
+  it(ageTests, "getAge", function () {
+    const { user } = this;
+    assertThrows(() => user.getAge(), Error, "Age unknown");
+    user.age = 18;
+    assertEquals(user.getAge(), 18);
+  });
+
+  it(ageTests, "setAge", function () {
+    const { user } = this;
+    user.setAge(18);
+    assertEquals(user.getAge(), 18);
+  });
+});
+```
