Is it possible to test for exceptions?
Is it possible to test for exceptions? I want to verify that an
exception is thrown when a user is not found - right now my test fails.
I'd love an assertException or something of that sort ;)
[junit] Testcase:
testGetUser(org.apache.persistence.ApplicationDAOHibernateTest): Caused
an ERROR
[junit] org.apache.persistence.DAOException: User not found in database!
[junit] org.apache.persistence.DAOException:
org.apache.persistence.DAOException: User not found in database!
[junit] at
org.apache.persistence.ApplicationDAOHibernate.getUser(ApplicationDAOHib
ernate.java:74)
[junit] at
org.apache.persistence.ApplicationDAOHibernateTest.testGetUser(Applicati
onDAOHibernateTest.java:54)
[junit] at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native
Method)
[junit] at
sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.jav
a:39)
[junit] at
sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessor
Impl.java:25)
[junit] Caused by: org.apache.persistence.DAOException: User not found

[junit] TEST org.apache.persistence.ApplicationDAOHibernateTest FAILED
Thanks,

duh, obviously the below logic is not quite right since it would always
fail. but you could set a flag in the catch and check it afterwards, or
return within the catch if thats the only thing that test was doing.
you get the idea!

This is normally done with a construct like this:
try {
// stuff that causes expected exception
}
catch (...) {
// expected
}
fail("did not get exception expected");
