+I need you to create a unit testing plan for $ARGUMENTS
+
+These are unit tests and I want them to be inline in rust fashion.
+
+If the code is difficult to test, you should suggest refactoring to make it easier to test.
+
+Think really hard about the code, the tests, and the refactoring (if applicable).
+
+Will you come up with test cases and let me review before you write the tests?
+
+Feel free to ask clarifying questions.
