Environment

default ava configuration

Node.js v6.0.0
darwin 15.4.0

Is there a way of disabling power assert so that the test at least runs?

[sindresorhus]

Move it out of the inline assertion for now:

import test from 'ava'

test('fail', t => {
  const obj = {a: 1}
  const obj2 = {...obj}

  t.true(obj == obj2)
})

Thanks, btw, it does works if the file is transpiled with babel before running the test,
so this works babel fail.js -o transpiled.js; ava transpiled.js and this doesn't ava fail.js.

@twada - Is this a power-assert issue? Can we close it and open up another issue in your repo? What would it be babel-plugin-espower?

[twada]

@jamestalmage @sindresorhus I'm so sorry that I overlooked this. Please file this issue to power-assert-runtime.
