Unit testing framework ('dunit')

Allows to define unittests simply as methods which names start
with 'test'.
The only thing necessary to create a unit test class, is to
declare the mixin TestMixin inside the class. This will register
the class and its test methods for the test runner.

    //(NOTE: this is bound at compile time, there is no overhead).

        //The expected and actual values will be shown in the output:
        assertEquals("my string looks dazzling", "my dtring looks sazzling");

    //be called without arguments, ie: as testDefaultArguments() for instance:

    //  setUp() and tearDown() are called around each individual test.
    //  setUpClass() and tearDownClass() are called once around the whole unit test.

    //You can for instance override setUpClass() and change the target 
    //implementation of a family of classes that you are testing.
    //
    //For instance: Run a set of tests against all derived classes of 
    //the Stream class.  You do this by keeping all the tests in a parent
    //test class, and creating a derived TestFixture for each one,
    //that all it has to do is instantiate the instance under test in the
    //overriden setUpClass().

Run this file with (works in Windows/Linux):


    dmd exampleTests.d dunit.d
    ./exampleTests


The output will be (java style):


    ...F....F...
    There were 2 failures:
    1) test2(AbcTest)core.exception.AssertError@exampleTests.d(61): 
       Expected: 'my string looks dazzling', but was: 'my dtring looks sazzling'
    2) test2(DerivedTest)core.exception.AssertError@exampleTests.d(61): 
       Expected: 'my string looks dazzling', but was: 'my dtring looks sazzling'

    FAILURES!!!
    Tests run: 10,  Failures: 2,  Errors: 0


If you use the more verbose method dunit.runTests_Tree(), then the output is:
