It's just like 1.8's test unit, but with some changes to the assertions:

$ ri MiniTest::Assertions
-------------------------------------------- Class: MiniTest::Assertions
      [no description]
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Instance methods:
      _assertions, _assertions=, assert, assert_block, assert_empty,
      assert_equal, assert_in_delta, assert_in_epsilon, assert_includes,
      assert_instance_of, assert_kind_of, assert_match, assert_nil,
      assert_operator, assert_raises, assert_respond_to, assert_same,
      assert_send, assert_throws, capture_io, exception_details, flunk,
      message, mu_pp, pass, refute, refute_empty, refute_equal,
      refute_in_delta, refute_in_epsilon, refute_includes,
      refute_instance_of, refute_kind_of, refute_match, refute_nil,
      refute_operator, refute_respond_to, refute_same, skip
