await not working as advertised

[budleigh]

Hi there - feel like a bit of an idiot, been staring at this for nearly an hour.

            it('fails', async function () {
                expect(await UserInterface.newUser({
                    email: '[email protected]',
                    password: 'anotherpassword',
                })).to.be.rejectedWith(MongoError);
            });

fails to capture the error:

    .newUser
         when the user already exists
           fails:
     MongoError: E11000 duplicate key error collection: huang_test.users index: email_1 dup key: { : "[email protected]" }

The docs are pretty straightforward here, so I assume it's something I'm doing wrong.

@budleigh I think you just need to pull await out of expect:

await expect(Promise.reject(new TypeError())).to.be.rejectedWith(TypeError);

@meeber Thanks! Just had the same issue. Pulling await out works for me.
