chai-catch-exception
====================
A ChaiJS Plugin inspired by catch-exception for Java

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/mimiz/chai-catch-exception.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/mimiz/chai-catch-exception)

## Usage :

The idea is to replace something like this :

it("Should throw error when array contains a NaN, [1,'']", function(){

expect(function(){ median([1,""]);}).to.throw(Error, "Must only contains numbers");

});

OR the readable way ...

it("Should throw error when array contains a NaN, [1,'']", function(){

// We need to encapsulate the function call so it won't be evaluated
var fn = function(){
median([1, ""]);
};

expect(fn).to.throw(Error, "Must only contains numbers");

});

With this :

it("Should throw error when array contains a NaN, [1,'']", function(){

expect(median).withParams([1,""]).to.throw(Error, "Must only contains numbers");

});

which we find more readable !

## Todo

* We still need to write tests with all assertion types : should, expect ...
* Packages for npm and bower
