Background

I can assert that an action throws, using a generic parameter:

action.Should().Throw<SomeException>();

Feature Request

Please consider adding an overload that takes an instance as well:

action.Should().Throw(expectedType);

This would be very useful when I don't know the type at compile time.

Right now we need to use an ugly workaround:

try {
  action();
}
catch (Exception e) {
  e.Should().BeOfType(expectedType);
}
