>Description:

When a test case is expecting a failure with atf_tc_expect_fail(expr) but
the failure does not trigger (cf. race conditions), atf(7) currently defaults
to the following string

        "Test case was expecting a failure but none were raised"

It would be however helpful if the "expr" (cf. usually "PR/1234") would be
appended to this string. In particular, this would make the HTML reports
easier to read without manual inspection of a bug tracking system.
Thus, e.g.

        "Test case was expecting: PR/1234. But failure was not raised."

Unknown.
