Thanks for pointing it out, I never really looked into that. I 
used `exit` before because everything was split into functions, 
so it was simpler to just `exit` than return things here and 
there.

It's fixed now in v0.0.2. I'm still using own printer for 
summary, because built-in one is boring:

vs
---
2/4 unittests FAILED
