Instead of using shouldnt:raise:, you can simply remove the assertion, as in:

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
testNoErrorWhenDrawing
        self shouldnt: [ view raw drawOn: tracingCanvas ] raise: Error
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

||
V

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
testNoErrorWhenDrawing
        view raw drawOn: tracingCanvas
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

With the second version of the test, the test may be listed as an error in case 
of an exception, whereas the first version it can only be listed as a failure.
I read your post and I kind of agree.
I will fix my tests then.
