Skipped test with 'toThrow' assertion crashes the test runner

See original GitHub issue

See:

https://github.com/ColinEberhardt/assemblyscript-regex/blob/as-pect-error/assembly/__spec_tests__/generated.spec.ts

I have a single skipped test:

xit("line: 1185 - matches ab{3cd against 'ab{3cd'", () => {
  expect(() => new RegExp("ab{3cd")).toThrow();
});

When I run npm run asp, the runner crashes as follows:

Modifying the skipped test as follows fixes the problem:

xit("line: 1185 - matches ab{3cd against 'ab{3cd'", () => {
  expect(() => throw new Error("Whoops")).toThrow();
});

Yes. This looks like a compiler error. I would file a complaint with assemblyscript about this assertion error.

I also think waiting may be a wise decision because I don’t know if this issue is already fixed.

Closing, because this error was related to AssemblyScript and not aspect
