  // required. full path to the source file directory and the expected directory
  // the expected directory should contain JSON files (e.q. example.json)

  // optional, update flag. Instead of testing expected files, they will be overwritten with
  // the actual value. Default: false

  // as a simple text. You can extend this behaviour.
