I guess I'm missing something, but how do you set descriptions from
Python?
There are two ways:
  1)
foo = exeter.register(...)
foo.set_description("test that does the thing")
2)
By default exeter will take it from the first line of the test
function's docstring.
Ah, this is really convenient. I mean I saw it happening but I wasn't
sure why. :)
