Trait mixed into the result type of the pending statement of trait Assertions, which always throws TestPendingException.
This type is used primarily to facilitate the is (pending) syntax of
traits FlatSpec, WordSpec, and
FLatSpec as well the
is (pending) or (pending) syntax of sibling traits
in the org.scalatest.fixture package. Because the pending
method in Assertions always completes abruptly with an exception, its
type would be inferred to be Nothing, which is a relatively common
type. To make sure syntax like is (pending) only works with
method pending, it is helpful to have a specially named
"Nothing" type.
