由于抛出异常，测试失败

Question

I have this unit test, that the overall test fails because of the exceptions that is thrown, although its expected :

@Test(expected = AutoGenerateStringIdException.class)
public void testPut_shouldThrowException(){
    RootEntity rootObject = new RootEntity(); 
    // Some codes here
    try {
        Key key = store.put(rootObject);
    } catch(AutoGenerateStringIdException e){
        assertEquals(e.getMessage(), "Cannot auto-generate String @Id"); 
    }
}

Answer 1

You can either have @Test(expected = SomeException.class) or use a try...catch as you're doing. You can't use both of them at the same time.

When you declare a test to expect a certain exception to be thrown and if you catch it within the test, it wouldn't be thrown, would it?

Although I haven't tried it, you could try re-throwing the exception from the catch block.

catch(AutoGenerateStringIdException e){
    assertEquals(e.getMessage(), "Cannot auto-generate String @Id"); 
    throw e;
}

Answer 2

If exception is expected in test, you should not catch it. Just remove try/catch and watch, what happens.

请查看 JUnit wiki： https : //github.com/junit-team/junit/wiki/Exception-testing它列出了测试异常的不同方法。
