Why You’re Pestering

Published 2018-01-18 by Kevin Feasel

Rob Sewell shows off the Because parameter in Pester 4.2.0:

This release adds the Because parameter to the all assertions. This means that you can add a reason why the test has failed. As JAKUB JAREŠ writes here

  • Reasons force you think more

  • Reasons document your intent

  • Reasons make your TestCases clearer

Click through for examples galore.  4.2.1 should have a -Parent macro which inputs -Because “I  said so”.
