Question: Generic catch of unhandled exceptions #593

Any exception thrown by a step binding method (Given/When/Then) indicates to the Reqnroll runtime that the test step has failed and to mark that Scenario as failed. Reqnroll even has a set of custom exception types specifically for this purpose, such as the So, we actually want the exceptions to flow out of the step methods. Are there concerns you have beyond that basic behavioral pattern used by Reqnroll? |
