Re: [Pharo-users] Why does the test runner show red when I correct a test?

I would agree that grey is better than red - but I personally think we’re being too pedantic on this - particularly when doing TDD and coding in the debugger. If I’m writing straight forward tests and like to see a red failure (either by deliberately returning false, or a subclass responsibility

Re: [Pharo-users] Why does the test runner show red when I correct a test?

A test that asserts nothing has only asserted that the code ran through without throwing an error. :-) I like your proposal that such a test is an inherently failing test. (Of course, that will result in the student adding a single assertion at the end, of the form "self assert: true"!) On Tue,
