Text says AST, example shows backtrace.

It prints the expression followed by a backtrace. AST isn't really the right word, but the backtrace bit isn't really the most significant part either.

Maybe print the expression that failed, along with the values and backtrace?

The more glaring issue is that these code blocks should be doctest, so that the change in output of the @test macro has not been caught (yet).

The thing that I missed, even with the strange wording, was that it prints
the expression itself. That's important enough to emphasise separately I
think.

Just a suggestion, but maybe:

Prints a backtrace for the failure. Note that the original expression which
failed is quoted before the backtrace.
