bun:test/require-to-throw-message
Require toThrow() to say which error it expects
toThrow() without an argument passes for any error at all, including a TypeError from a typo in the code under test. The test stays green even though it never reached the check you meant to test. Pass part of the message, a regular expression, or the error class.
.not.toThrow() is allowed, because there's no error to describe.
