Same here. BTW I'd like unittests that "must not compile" and
unittests that "must fail dynamically".
For the former case, the compiler should cooperate:
@incompilable unittest { ... }
fails if it passes compilation. So the compiler must know about
that attribute.
There should be a way to specify the error message (or match it
against a regex); otherwise the test could fail accidentally for
totally unrelated reasons, and nobody would notice...
