Better errors details

I just got

C:\t\node_modules\pioneer\node_modules\selenium-webdriver\lib\webdriver\promise.js:1643
      throw error;
            ^
AssertionError: expected false to be true

What is going on? I don't even know what failed... Not even the line... nothing.

Without looking at your code it is hard to help with this error.

The problem was very easy to solve because I just had a test. This is not the question.

The issue is why the lib doesn't show the file and the line where the error happened?

Now I get this:

C:\t\node_modules\pioneer\node_modules\selenium-webdriver\lib\webdriver\promise.js:1643
      throw error;
            ^
Error: Wait timed out after 626ms

And the error should be here somewhere:

    this.Given(/^I drop the database$/,function(){
        var databaseName    = 'test';
        var mongoose        = require('mongoose');
        var mongooseConnect = require('mongoose-connect');
        var connectData     = mongooseConnect.connect(databaseName, [], mongoose);
        var dropped         = false;
        connectData.connection.on('connected', function(){
            connectData.connection.db.dropDatabase(function(err, _dropped){
                (err === null).should.be.true;

    });

        }).then(function(value){

    });

            result.then(function(value){
                if(inited) return;
                inited = value;
            })
        }.bind(this), n * 10).then(function(){
        })
    });

    this.When(/^I should have some planets$/, function(){

        result.then(function(value){

        })
    });

    this.Then(/^I should see \"([^\"]*)\"$/, function(expected){
        var List = this.Widget.List.extend({
            root: "#todo-list",
            childSelector: "li"
        })

        return new List().readAt(0).should.eventually.eql(expected);
    })
}

How do you debug your tests? This is insane without a file and a line number. Well the error was that the wait method timed out.
