+ (description
+ "In situations where you have deep trees of classes,
+there is a common situation in which you test a module 4 or 5 subclasses down,
+which should follow the correct behaviour of not just the subclass, but of all
+the parent classes.
+
+This should be done to ensure that the implementation of a subclass has not
+somehow ``broken'' the object's behaviour in a more general sense.
+
+Test::Object is a testing package designed to allow you to easily test what
+you believe is a valid object against the expected behaviour of all of the
+classes in its inheritance tree in one single call.")
