我们可以在必须返回异常的方法之后使用断言失败：

try{
   methodThatThrowMyException();
   Assert.fail("MyException is not thrown !");
} catch (final Exception exception) {
   // Verify if the thrown exception is instance of MyException, otherwise throws an assert failure
   assertTrue(exception instanceof MyException, "An exception other than MyException is thrown !");
   // In case of verifying the error message
   MyException myException = (MyException) exception;
   assertEquals("EXPECTED ERROR MESSAGE", myException.getMessage());
}

IMHO，在JUnit中检查异常的最佳方法是try/catch/fail/assert模式：

// this try block should be as small as possible,
// as you want to make sure you only catch exceptions from your code
try {
    sut.doThing();
    fail(); // fail if this does not throw any exception
} catch(MyException e) { // only catch the exception you expect,
                         // otherwise you may catch an exception for a dependency unexpectedly
    // a strong assertion on the message, 
    // in case the exception comes from anywhere an unexpected line of code,
    // especially important if your checking IllegalArgumentExceptions
    assertEquals("the message I get", e.getMessage()); 
}

assertTrue对某些人来说可能有点强，所以assertThat（例如getMessage（），containsString（“消息”）；可能更可取。

在JUnit 4或更高版本中，您可以如下测试异常

@Rule
public ExpectedException exceptions = ExpectedException.none();

这提供了许多可以用来改进JUnit测试的特性。如果您看到下面的示例，我将测试异常的3个方面。

引发的异常类型异常消息异常的原因

public class MyTest {

    @Rule
    public ExpectedException exceptions = ExpectedException.none();

    ClassUnderTest classUnderTest;

    @Before
    public void setUp() throws Exception {
        classUnderTest = new ClassUnderTest();
    }

    @Test
    public void testAppleisSweetAndRed() throws Exception {

        exceptions.expect(Exception.class);
        exceptions.expectMessage("this is the exception message");
        exceptions.expectCause(Matchers.<Throwable>equalTo(exceptionCause));

        classUnderTest.methodUnderTest("param1", "param2");
    }

}

我在这里尝试了许多方法，但它们要么很复杂，要么不太符合我的要求。事实上，可以非常简单地编写一个助手方法：

public class ExceptionAssertions {
    public static void assertException(BlastContainer blastContainer ) {
        boolean caughtException = false;
        try {
            blastContainer.test();
        } catch( Exception e ) {
            caughtException = true;
        }
        if( !caughtException ) {
            throw new AssertionFailedError("exception expected to be thrown, but was not");
        }
    }
    public static interface BlastContainer {
        public void test() throws Exception;
    }
}

这样使用：

assertException(new BlastContainer() {
    @Override
    public void test() throws Exception {
        doSomethingThatShouldExceptHere();
    }
});

零依赖：无需mockito，无需powermock；在期末考试中表现很好。

我想评论一下这个问题的解决方案，它避免了任何与异常相关的JUnit代码。

我使用assertTrue（布尔值）和try/catch组合来查找要抛出的预期异常。下面是一个示例：

public void testConstructor() {
    boolean expectedExceptionThrown;
    try {
        // Call constructor with bad arguments
        double a = 1;
        double b = 2;
        double c = a + b; // In my example, this is an invalid option for c
        new Triangle(a, b, c);
        expectedExceptionThrown = false; // because it successfully constructed the object
    }
    catch(IllegalArgumentException e) {
        expectedExceptionThrown = true; // because I'm in this catch block
    }
    catch(Exception e) {
        expectedExceptionThrown = false; // because it threw an exception but not the one expected
    }
    assertTrue(expectedExceptionThrown);
}

有两种编写测试用例的方法

使用方法引发的异常来注释测试。类似于@Test（预期=IndexOutOfBoundsException.class）您可以使用try-catch块在测试类中捕获异常，并对从测试类中的方法抛出的消息进行断言。尝试{}catch（从方法e抛出的异常）{assertEquals（“message”，即getmessage（））；}

我希望这能回答你的问题快乐学习。。。
