 Additionally, hooks can be used to ensure any initialization or cleanup is done (`before`, `after`, and `around`).
 Pre- and post-conditions can be used to ensure code contracts are kept.

 Spectator has different types of contexts to reduce boilerplate.
 One is the `sample` context.
 This context type repeats all tests (and contexts within) for a set of values.
