/**
 * Tests the behavior of a test function by comparing it to the expected
 * behavior (defined by a reference function).
 *
 * First the reference function will be called to obtain an "expected result",
 * or if the reference function throws/rejects, an "expected error". Next, the
 * test function will be called to obtain an "actual result", or if the test
 * function throws/rejects, an "actual error". The test passes if at least one
 * of the following conditions is met:
 *
 * 1) Neither the reference function or the test function throw and the
 * "expected result" equals the "actual result".
 *
 * 2) Both the reference function and the test function throw and the "actual
 * error" message *contains* the "expected error" message.
 *
 * @param referenceFuncAsync a reference function implemented in pure
 * JavaScript/TypeScript which accepts N arguments and returns the "expected
 * result" or throws/rejects with the "expected error".
 * @param testFuncAsync a test function which, e.g., makes a call or sends a
 * transaction to a contract. It accepts the same N arguments returns the
 * "actual result" or throws/rejects with the "actual error".
 * @param values an array of N values, where each value corresponds in-order to
 * an argument to both the test function and the reference function.
 * @return A Promise that resolves if the test passes and rejects if the test
 * fails, according to the rules described above.
