Subject: test-error does not work

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi,

currently the test-error does not seem to work:

    (test-error "should throw" 'foo
      (throw 'bar))

results in

    test-name: should throw
    location: test.scm:191
    source:
    + (test-error "should throw" 'foo (throw 'bar))
    expected-error:
    + foo
    actual-error:
    + (bar)
    result: PASS

According to feedback from mastodon it is not really implemented.  That does not
seem to be documented.  Maybe it would be better to just not export it?  Or it
should throw 'not-implemented instead of just passing?

Have a nice day,
Tomas
