The new test case verifies the current behavior that no exceptions are thrown if a key mentioned in a template is not found. The Catch2 TEST_CASE macro was used directly instead of the MSTCH_TEST or other macros because this test case does not verify output of the mstch::render with a given input, what MSTCH_TEST and friends are for.

Throwing an exception enables clients to detect failures to render template completely due to missing keys. This is useful in cases where clients expect templates and the data structure to always match and treat missing keys as failures. Define a custom exception to enable clients to identify the specific type of the error. Signed-off-by: Hannu Lounento <[email protected]>

Ignoring the code (although it looks fine to me), I'm +1 on this feature. |

Add support for throwing an exception if a key referenced by a template is not found. This is useful for clients that want to ensure templates and the related input data structure match and want to handle potential mismatches as failures.
P.S. I also rebased the patches against torbjoernk/mstch branch develop and pushed to the branch torbjoernk/report-missing-keys as some of the other open pull requests have been merged there.
