This is a minor observation (so you decide what value it might have),
but the terminology "handle ... invalid pager" in the test title
doesn't convey very much information to some future reader of this
test, and that person will be forced to consult the commit message --
which does a good job of explaining the problem -- to really
understand what this test is checking. If you change the title to, for
instance:
non-existent pager doesn't cause crash
then the reader will have an easier time understanding what this test
is about. It's true that the reader will still need to consult the
commit message for a detailed picture of the problem, but won't be
left head-scratching, as might be the case with the current test
title.
