Hi,

I want to catch the selenium exception org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException, and now I want my case to throw this exception, then I can catch it, but I don't know how to simulate such a selenium exception in my case, anyone knows?

Thanks!

Why would you throw an exception immediately to catch it? Why would you need to know exactly how to simulate an exception if you could just throw it programmatically?

Hi Zhang,

First catch the Exception, verify its type of the Exception. You would not require to simulate it, but catch it verify to perform particular action.

try{

}
catch(Exception e)//Exception is a super-class for all exceptions.
{
if(e instanceOf SessionNotCreatedException)
{

}
else
{

}
}
