Answer 1

You didn't miss anything, it is the express test req.xhr that will never fail.

If running your example, you will see the error stacktrace but the test passes because:

1. it didn't catch the error during test.
2. no error information passed to done() function call.

My fixes are in PR #2053:

1. use expect() to return the assertion error to .end().
2. pass any error information to done().
