JSON Patch Tests
================
-These are test cases for implementations of the [IETF JSON Patch

+Writing Tests
+-------------
+
+All tests should have a descriptive comment. Tests should be as
+simple as possible - just what's required to test a specific piece of
+behavior. If you want to test interacting behaviors, create tests for
+each behavior as well as the interaction.
+
+If an 'error' member is specified, the error text should describe the
+error the implementation should raise - *not* what's being tested.
+Implementation error strings will vary, but the suggested error should
+be easily matched to the implementation error string. Try to avoid
+creating error tests that might pass because an incorrect error was
+reported.
+
+Please feel free to contribute!
