Hi, thanks for the comment and sorry for the unclarity.
I was refering to my original post in this thread about try/catch with
generators:

Yes, but the Domenic pointed out that the reference error there has
nothing to do with generators so much as async control flow in general
(it could be in a function passed as a callback or downward funarg, and
called "later" by any means). And you seemed to agreed.
It's true that yield allows part of a function to run in a later event
loop turn -- or just in a later iteration of a loop in the same turn.
Generators by themselves are not async in the event loop sense. So first
you need to identify the problem precisely.
If you write
function f() { ... setCallback(function g() {... RefErrHere ... }) ... }
you need test coverage over the body of g.
If you write
function* f() { ... yield; RefErrHere ... }
same deal. There is no difference in kind.
So, is the problem you are citing a general one of test coverage over
async control flow?
