---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 At the moment the documentation described both doctest and unit tests
 without giving the reader and guidance to one or the other. It is
 generally agree'd that unit tests are a better choice. I have added a
 patch with a small patch that adds a note to reflect this.

 However, I'm not sure if this reflects a bigger problem - should unit
 tests be described first and docetests second so that the reader doesn't
 read through that section only to find out its not recommended? Or should
 the note be added to the top and further emphasised?
