Yeah, mixins could work, but they're ugly. ;-)
Forcing the user (in this case the unit test writer) to apply extra boilerplate
on their own every time they want to make an assertion is really not much of a
solution. There's no semantic reason an assertion should involve a mixin, so
allowing that detail to bleed into client code is shaky design.
I know I'd get tired of wrapping everything in mixin(...) all the time, and in
the end it would probably result in me writing fewer unit tests. :-P
