Best way to test exceptions with Assert to ensure they will be thrown

Question

Do you think that this is a good way for testing exceptions? Any suggestions?

Exception exception = null;
try{
    //I m sure that an exeption will happen he

Now, 2017, you can do it easier with the new MSTest V2 Framework:

Assert.ThrowsException(() => myClass.MyMethodWithError());

//async version
await Assert.ThrowsExceptionAsync(
  () => myObject.SomeMethodAsync()
);
