refactor(cow1): replace main with tests

Following the discussion in #1195 this is the best I could come up with.
The issue for me (and apparently a few other learners) was that the code
needed to complete the exercise was not _missing_, but was rather there
but wrong.

In the end, what made the difference between this exercise and others
(for me) was that in this exercise I was supposed to learn what to
*expect* of an output. So I think it makes sense here to let the learner
modify the tests and not the code itself.

Fixes #1195
