Description

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 350

Describe the enhancement you have in mind.
When I have a condition inside a condition.eventually and if the condition fails the
failure report is not helpful like in regular test.
The report should say what was actual value and what it was meaning to receive.

Which particular problem would this enhancement solve for you?
It will help to debug the issue with the test faster.

Research direction

Start by locating the implementation of condition.eventually and the existing failure-reporting tests for regular conditions. Compare how polling failures are reported with regular test failures. The work is done when a failed condition inside condition.eventually reports both the actual value and the expected value.
