[Pharo-dev] image state saving TDD

2019-04-29 Thread Ben Coman
Just a thought on a dream feature... When doing TDD, it would be super cool if in a test method, the state of the image was saved just before an #assert: so if the assert fails the state is restored to just before the assert was called, so I don't have to and multi-step through the whole method
