Package abide is a testing utility for http response snapshots inspired
by Facebook's Jest.
It is designed to be used alongside Go's existing testing package
and enable broader coverage of http APIs. When included in version control
it can provide a historical log of API and application changes over time.
A snapshot is essentially a lockfile representing an http response.
In addition to testing `http.Response`, abide provides methods for testing
`io.Reader` and any object that implements `Assertable`.
Snapshots are saved in a directory named __snapshots__ at the root of the package.
These files are intended to be saved and included in version control.
Snapshots are automatically generated during the initial test run. For example
this will create a snapshot identified by "example" for this http.Response.
In subsequent test runs the existing snapshot is compared to the new results.
In the event they do not match, the test will fail, and the diff will be printed.
If the change was intentional, the snapshot can be updated.
