# isStrict

A Boolean value that indicates whether the test reports an error if the expected failure doesn’t occur.

## Declaration

```swift
var isStrict: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The default is true. Set this property to false to prevent the test from recording the unfilled expected failure as an issue.
