I like it too -- and can we not catch the different error codes using a
regexp like we do the for the rest of the test? Something like

  $ command
  \[(1|42|255)\]

though the escaping makes the square brackets a bad choice. Maybe like
this instead

  $ command
  exit code: (1|42|255)

which I think reads quite nicely.
