You can do both of these things in Midje. Midje replaces inversion of control 
(3) with the metaphor of facts-about-functions that depend on facts about other 
functions (much as a proof might depend on a lemma). See

That given, testing a recursive function (1) becomes a special case:

You'll have to be more specific.
