module sample;

class X { void foo() {} }

Refer below form -> it can be expanded with addition attribute(s) 
in future with consistent structure
unittest(name="good", document="class X")
{}
unittest(name="good", document="class X.foo")
{}

name = name of unittest
document = generate document for class X
            generate document for function class X.foo


for running test
unitttest=name:"good"
unittest=module:"sample"

name = only run unittest with matching name "good"
module = only run unittest(s) for module "sample"
