All Implemented Interfaces:: Test

public class ExceptionTestCase extends TestCase

A TestCase that expects an Exception of class fExpected to be thrown. The other way to check that an expected exception is thrown is:

try {
  shouldThrow();
}
catch (SpecialException e) {
  return;
}
fail("Expected SpecialException");

To use ExceptionTestCase, create a TestCase like:

new ExceptionTestCase("testShouldThrow", SpecialException.class);
