Ensure after.each hooks run when an exception is raised?

[angelsanzn]

When an exception is raised in an example, all after.each hooks for that example are skipped:

with description('ensuring "after" hooks get run'):
    with it('when an exception is raised in the body of the test'):
        raise Exception

    with after.each:
        print('this should be printed, but is not')

with description('ensuring "after" hooks get run'):
    with context('nested context'):
        with it('when an exception is raised in the body of the test'):
            raise Exception

        with after.each:
            print('this should be printed, but is not')

    with after.each:
        print('this should also be printed, but is not')

Is this intentional? Or should the after.each hooks be run?

This has been open a long time without comment? seems like the approach is wrong when comparing with any other testing frameworks. Would a pull request be entertained if it looked at changing this?

I opened another issue for this accidentally because I didn't see this one. I actually submitted a pull request for it. This issue is currently making it pretty difficult to use mamba if you need to tear stuff down after every test.

I'm going to do some research about this stuff and I hope to get it done today.

Thanks for your patience.

I have seen an interesting behaviour in rspec:

  it 'raises an error' do
    raise 'Error 1'
  end

  after(:each) do
    raise 'Error 2'
  end
end

And it gives following output:

Failures:

  1) After each error raises an error
     Got 0 failures and 2 other errors:

     1.1) Failure/Error: raise 'Error 1'

          RuntimeError:
            Error 1
          # ./foo_spec.rb:3:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>'

     1.2) Failure/Error: raise 'Error 2'

          RuntimeError:
            Error 2
          # ./foo_spec.rb:7:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>'

Finished in 0.0019 seconds (files took 0.06321 seconds to load)
1 example, 1 failure

Failed examples:

rspec ./foo_spec.rb:2 # After each error raises an error

It is raising an error composed with 2 additional errors, one for spec block and other for after.each block.

I think this is the desired behaviour for mamba and I would like to implement it.

What do you think?

Thanks.
