Description

This is a tricky one because generators are invalid syntax and have to be feature-detected using Function or eval, as well as the running of a test for them. Need to figure out how to take a test and get it into a string so the test suite can run the test only in environments where a generator is valid.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review existing test patterns in asynquence, then implement a conditional test that uses Function or eval to detect generator support and run a test only when generators are valid.
