3.4.0
b8d2203

This release improves some confusing error messages, and adds some new assertions. Key points:

  • Feature: New assertion: expect(1).oneOf([1,2,3]) - for asserting that a given value is one of a set.
  • Feature: .include() (and variants) will now give better error messages for bad object types. Before expect(undefined).to.include(1) would say "expected undefined to include 1", now says "object tested must be an array, an object, or a string but undefined given"
  • Feature: .throw() (and variants) can now better determine the Error types, for example expect(foo).to.throw(node_assert.AssertionError) now works.
  • Feature: .closeTo is now aliased as .approximately
  • BugFix: .empty changes from 3.3.0 have been reverted, as they caused breaking changes to arrays which manually set keys.
