我如何使用Assert(或其他测试类)来验证在使用MSTest/Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting时抛出了异常?


当前回答

上面@Richiban提供的帮助器工作得很好,只是它不能处理抛出异常的情况,也不能处理预期的类型。以下说明:

using System;
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting;

namespace YourProject.Tests
{
    public static class MyAssert
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// Helper for Asserting that a function throws an exception of a particular type.
        /// </summary>
        public static void Throws<T>( Action func ) where T : Exception
        {
            Exception exceptionOther = null;
            var exceptionThrown = false;
            try
            {
                func.Invoke();
            }
            catch ( T )
            {
                exceptionThrown = true;
            }
            catch (Exception e) {
                exceptionOther = e;
            }

            if ( !exceptionThrown )
            {
                if (exceptionOther != null) {
                    throw new AssertFailedException(
                        String.Format("An exception of type {0} was expected, but not thrown. Instead, an exception of type {1} was thrown.", typeof(T), exceptionOther.GetType()),
                        exceptionOther
                        );
                }

                throw new AssertFailedException(
                    String.Format("An exception of type {0} was expected, but no exception was thrown.", typeof(T))
                    );
            }
        }
    }
}

你可以从Nuget下载一个包,使用:PM> Install-Package MSTestExtensions将Assert.Throws()语法以nUnit/xUnit的风格添加到MsTest。

高级指令:从BaseTest下载程序集并继承,您可以使用Assert.Throws()语法。

Throws实现的主要方法如下所示:

public static void Throws<T>(Action task, string expectedMessage, ExceptionMessageCompareOptions options) where T : Exception
{
    try
    {
        task();
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        AssertExceptionType<T>(ex);
        AssertExceptionMessage(ex, expectedMessage, options);
        return;
    }

    if (typeof(T).Equals(new Exception().GetType()))
    {
        Assert.Fail("Expected exception but no exception was thrown.");
    }
    else
    {
        Assert.Fail(string.Format("Expected exception of type {0} but no exception was thrown.", typeof(T)));
    }
}

我知道这个帖子很老了,有很多很好的答案,但值得一提的是,局部函数可以以一种非常简单的方式提供帮助。

//Arrange

//Act
void LocalFunction() => mr.ActualMethod(params);

//Assert
Assert.Throws<Exception>(LocalFunction);

通常你的测试框架会给出答案。但如果它不够灵活,你可以这样做:

try {
    somethingThatShouldThrowAnException();
    Assert.Fail(); // If it gets to this line, no exception was thrown
} catch (GoodException) { }

正如@Jonas指出的,这并不适用于捕捉基本异常:

try {
    somethingThatShouldThrowAnException();
    Assert.Fail(); // raises AssertionException
} catch (Exception) {
    // Catches the assertion exception, and the test passes
}

如果绝对必须捕获Exception,则需要重新抛出Assert.Fail()。但实际上,这是一个你不应该手写的信号;检查测试框架中的选项,或者查看是否可以抛出更有意义的异常进行测试。

catch (AssertionException) { throw; }

您应该能够根据自己的需要调整这种方法——包括指定要捕获的异常类型。如果你只期望某些类型,完成catch块:

} catch (GoodException) {
} catch (Exception) {
    // not the right kind of exception
    Assert.Fail();
}

这适用于Visual Studio Team Test(又名MSTest) 在处理数据库或http事务时。系统应该在某处抛出异常,使用Assert.ThrowExceptionAsync<>()将捕获您的throw事件。(在这些情况下,Assert.ThrowException<>()不会捕获异常)。

   [TestMethod]
   public void Invalid_Input_UserName_Should_Throw_Exception()
   {
       await Assert.ThrowExceptionAsync<ExpectedExceptionType>(()=> new LogonInfo(InvalidInputInUserNameFormat,"P@ssword"));
   }

作为一种替代方法,您可以尝试测试异常实际上是在您的测试中的下两行中抛出的。

var testDelegate = () => MyService.Method(params);
Assert.Throws<Exception>(testDelegate);
