Snapshot properties

Define snapshot properties in YAML to document snapshots, configure settings, add tests, and describe columns.

We recommend that you put them in the snapshots/ directory. You can name these files whatever_you_want.yml, and nest them arbitrarily deeply in subfolders within the snapshots/ or models/ directory.
