> I dunno if you fixed this in 4.0 releases. To make testing easier, I think the error messages should be viewable when the exception is thrown. I know it's possible to inspect the exception for these errors, but within a unit test, this is just too much work and it's annoying.
> In practice, we create all these objects and do tests. Sometimes these objects get sent to the database and are saved. 
> Now, let's say 3 validation constraints aren't met. On the outset, the developer is 100% blind and must code in a try/catch and print out the list of errors. When this happens over and over and over... it's just tedious. When a test fails because an unexpected validation exception is thrown, I don't want to have to do this - I want to instantly see what went wrong so I can make the changes to my test case and run it quickly.
> I think this change would facilitate much faster test/code cycles, and it shouldn't be hard to add in. 
> Thanks
