Description
After my review of https://github.com/jquery/jquery/pull/5822, @mgol reported in the jquery/dev Matrix channel:
not sure if this is a recent change, but now in jQuery getting a synchronous error thrown during test execution shows up as an unhandled rejection in IE 11, which complicates debugging.
