I stumbled across this idea when Markus Gaelli chose it as a PhD topic
about ten years ago (man, I'm old). The main idea was not to provide tests,
but examples that happened to have assertions. The goal was twofold: (1)
provide live documentation with real objects, (2) provide another way of
composing tests.

The project did not really come to fruition, but I still think this is
highly interesting topic. Part of the ideas were later implemented in
Phexample (http://www.smalltalkhub.com/#!/~Phexample/Phexample/) and
JExample (http://scg.unibe.ch/research/jexample).

That's really interesting. I had never heard of Phexample - so many
interesting projects, so little time! - I like the approach of building on
tests.  Do you know if this will work in Pharo 3?

Also, I may have misunderstood what Pyret was doing. Perhaps it is more
about examples.
