Comment:

 I don't necessarily agree. The right way to access the failing elements is
 to use post mortem introspection with the debugger, as described in
 TestSuite. I agree it is a little improvement if the elements are printed
 right away. However, with the current patch, this does reduce the
 lisibility of the test function: I want the mathematical test to be
 written in a way that is as close as possible to the math.

 Cheers,
                             Nicolas
