12. 3. How it works
Jasmine tests are split up into suites:
• suites describe a group of your tests
• suites takes a string (with a description of your
tests) and a function which defines the tests.

13. Example of a suite:
describe("the function we're going to
test", function() {
// more code goes here
})
