How to use custom error message ?

[Lenny4]

Hello,

I can't find a way to write a custom error message when a test fail.

Something like:

it('should not fail', function () {
    expect(false, 'My custom error message')->toBeTrue();
});

Thank you

As for now is not possible in a simple way, you could create a custom expectation or trigger a custom error message this way:

it('should not fail', function () {
    try{
        expect(false)->toBeTrue();
    }catch(ExpectationFailedException $exception){
         throw new ExpectationFailedException('My custom error message');
    }
});

This is now possible, just with a different format.

expect('foo')->toBe('foo', 'uh oh');

or for no-value expectations...

expect(true)->toBe(true, 'oops');

Edit: @fabio-ivona, I just noticed it was you that added this support. Thanks!
