						|
expect(dedent`Line #1

						|
	Line #2
 | 
						|
	Line #3`).to.equal('Line #1\nLine #2\nLine #3');
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
	Line #1
 | 
						|
	Line #2

						|
	`

						|
	`
 | 
						|
).to.equal('Line #1\n\tLine #2\n\t\tLine #3');
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
// The last line is ignored if it doesn't contain anything else than whitespace.
 | 
						|
expect(
 |

	function () {
 | 
						|
		return dedent`
 | 
						|
			Line #1

						|
	}()
