JUnit 4 Expected Exception type

Question

I am trying to do a JUnit test on code that someone else has written, but I cannot figure out how to test for the exception, because the exception seems to lack a type.

Answer 1

You can use JUnit 'expected' to test exceptions:

@Test(expected = ExceptionYouWishToTestFor.class)  
public void divisionWithException() {  
    // Test Code
}

After that it's up to you to throw that particular exception in your code.
