does jasmine have soft assertion using expect()?

In my tests, there are lots of expects. But some of them may not be severe enough to stop the tests. Could I ignore the error at a moment and throw them at the end of the test?

The jasmine expectations are kind of "soft" by default. In a sense that the test execution continues after a failure.

In other words, if you have the following code:

expect(true).toBe(false);
expect(false).toBe(true);

you would get a test failure with 2 unmet expectations.

A common problem is an exact opposite of what you are asking about - how to turn the behavior off so that jasmine would fail the test after the very first expect fails - this is now solved by stopSpecOnExpectationFailure option which is false by default.
