Looking at Pyret, you're referring to the "where" syntax right? So this:

fun sum(l):
  cases (List) l:
    | empty => 0
    | link(first, rest) => first + sum(rest)
  end
where:
  sum([list: ]) is 0
  sum([list: 1, 2, 3]) is 6
end

...means that the "where" body is composed of tests of the `sum` function. 
I like this a lot and want it for Racket (in a way that's more direct than 
submodules). But I have no idea how it should work for nested functions 
that close over variables of the outer function. Would the tests specify 
the closure bindings maybe?
