Is the 'raises' parameter in xfail ignored?

[doomofart]

Hi!

My test returns xfail, although the exception type is not that I specify in 'raises'.

e. g.

@pytest.mark.xfail(raises=ZeroDivisionError)
    def test_xfail(self):
        with check:
            assert 1 == 2

I am waiting 'failed', but the test returns 'xfailed'. I think I'm doing something wrong. Is there another way?

Looks like we don't support raises yet. Too bad though. It'd be nice to support that.

This could be considered an enhancement, but I realize it's unexpected behavior for you, so bug is also reasonable.

Adding some notes here, so I don't forget.

Perhaps we could interrogate the xfail args, like https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/blob/8fb7e8b31efaa55e760c142e26eb82b42081ca28/src/_pytest/skipping.py#L207

I'm hoping it's not too late to deal with the issue in make_report, here https://github.com/okken/pytest-check/blob/61412e6ff96e74b9c8ed2b637a8441e0e35d9f5d/src/pytest_check/plugin.py#L11
