Verifying that exception was thrown

[Domas]

Is there a way to verify that an exception was thrown while invoking
some method?
Or should I use "expectedExceptions" argument of
org.testng.annotations.Test annotation?
I didn't want to split all exception testing into separate methods.

Hi,

Usually I do something like that:

when(mock.foo()).thenThrow(exc);

try {
system.doStuff();
fail();
} catch(SomeSpecificException e) {
//you can assert the exception here - if it makes sense
}

Cheers,

Thanks for suggestion.
I just was expecting something like:
Foo foo = spy(this.foo);
verifyThrows(foo.test(), RuntimeException.class);

Anyway, I guess this is responsibility of testing framework, not
Mockito.
