The standard clojure.test namespace included in Clojure has this
functionality (or something very similar) by default.

You can attach tests as metadata to a function, either like:

    (defn foo
      {:test (fn [] (is (= (foo 1) 2)))}
      [x]
      (+ x 1))

Or like:

    (with-test
      (defn foo [x]
        (+ x 1))
      (is (= (foo 1) 2)))
