  87  * Macro for throwing a TestException that wraps another exception.

  89  * \param[in] e    Exception object to wrap.
  90  *
  91  * This macro is intended for wrapping exceptions thrown by Gromacs methods
  92  * that are called from a test for the test's internal purposes.  It wraps the
  93  * exception in a TestException to make it possible to tell from the type of
  94  * the exception whether the exception was thrown by the code under test, or by
  95  * the test code itself.
  96  *
  97  * \p e should evaluate to an instance of an object derived from
  98  * GromacsException.
  99  *
 100  * Typical usage in test code:
 101  * \code
