Ember qunit assert.throws does not work

I installed Ember 2.12 and created new project with a component and a test to ensure it throws an error if required attribute is not provided. I can't get this test to pass.

dummy-component.hbs

{{value}}
{{yield}}

dummy-component.js

import Ember from 'ember';
export default Ember.Component.extend({
  value: Ember.computed(() => {
    Ember.assert("Someone forgot to provide a required value attribute");
  })
});

dummy-component-test.js

import { moduleForComponent, test } from 'ember-qunit';
import hbs from 'htmlbars-inline-precompile';

moduleForComponent('dummy-component', 'Integration | Component | dummy component', {
  integration: true
});

test('it throws', function(assert) {
  assert.throws(() => {
    this.render(hbs`{{dummy-component}}`);
  }, 'Error: Assertion Failed: Someone forgot to provide a required value    attribute');
});

Test fails with the following:

    ---
        actual: >
            false
        expected: >
            true
        stack: >

A workaround solution is already provided in github issue submitted; but I am copying steps to apply in order to tackle the issue so as to help others:

Install ember-qunit-assert-helpers via

ember install ember-qunit-assert-helpers

Change your code that throws an error to Ember.assert.

In your test class, use assert.expectAssertion instead of assert.throws.
