This one has created a bit of confusion for us over in Cats Effect 😅

libraryDependencies += "org.specs2" %% "specs2-core" % "4.16.0"

    "not be skipped" in {
      val p = Promise[Boolean]()
      p.tryFailure(new TimeoutException)
      p.future
    }
  }

Ouch, null values FTW. A fix is on the way.

Thanks!
