      This is pretty tricky to test. I believe it is enough to run phpunit to make sure there is no regression.

      In order to see this in action, you would need to

      1. Write a new unit test
      2. Throw moodle_exception in the test, providing the $a parameter (string or object) together with an non-existing error string.

      Description

      Let us have moodle_exception thrown during the PHPUnit test. The exception was thrown with additional data passed via the $a parameter. If the exception error string does not exist, the data in the $a parameter are not displayed.

      Normally, when such exception is thrown, the function get_exception_info() appends the contents of the $a placeholder to the exception message. But that function is not used during PHPUnit execution.

      There is already a code that automatically appends the $debuginfo to the message. We need something similar for $a too.
