Hi Stuart,

Cool additions - I will certainly use them.

Regarding test-is additions, did you ever get a chance to check out the
patch I submitted a while back?

http://groups.google.com/group/clojure/browse_thread/thread/c509d589e181df1e/4319c02c9930d12e?lnk=gst&q=PATCH+test-is#4319c02c9930d12e

It was my first patch so appologies if there are some glaring errors or
bad-style in there (but it was a very simple addition so I'd hope not!).

I realised just after posting that catching Errors in the general case could
be viewed as a no-no because the JVM could be in an unstable state after the
Error (depending on which error was thrown) so the desired outcome would be
to terminate.  Is that your view?

For my particular scenario, I wanted test-is to support StackOverflowError.
I was working on a SICP exercise that caused StackOverflowErrors and I
wanted to have a test that passed when a StackOverflowError occurred, then
continue processing other tests.  So in my specific case, I felt the patch
made sense but maybe supporting *all* Errors is going to far?

Hmmm........

Cheers,
Paul.
