def test(home=None, **kwargs):
    """Decorates a test class or function to cause Proboscis to run it.

    The behavior differs depending the target:

        - If put on a stand-alone function, the function will run by itself.

        - If put on a class inheriting unittest.TestCase, then the class will
          run just like a normal unittest class by using the method names and
          instantiate a new instance of the class for each test method.

        - If the class does not inherit from unittest.TestCase, the class will
          be instantiated once and this instance will be passed to each method
          decorated with @test (this increases encapsulation over using class
          fields as the instance can not be accessed outside of its methods).

          Note that due to how decorators work its impossible to know if a
          function is or is not part of a class; thus if a class method is
          decorated with test but its class is not then
          ProboscisTestMethodNotDecorated will be raised.

    :param groups: A list of strings representing the groups this test method
                   or class belongs to. By default this is an empty list.
    :param depends_on: A list of test functions or classes which must run
                       before this test. By default this is an empty list.
    :param depends_on_groups: A list of strings each naming a group that must
                              run before this test. By default this is an empty
                              list.
    :param enabled: By default, true. If set to false this test will not run.
    :param always_run: If true this test will run even if the tests listed in
                       depends_on or depends_on_groups have failed.
