Question

@Test(expectedExceptions=DataAccessException.class)
public void testUpdateSubModuleOrderDateExceptionCheck() {
    //some code to initialize//
    UserSubModuleDao userSubModuleDao = mock(UserSubModuleDao.class);
    userModuleServiceImpl.setUserSubModuleDao(userSubModuleDao);
    UserSubModule userSubModule=new UserSubModule();
    UserSubModuleId userSubModuleId=new UserSubModuleId();
      when(userSubModuleDao.findById(any(UserSubModuleId.class),eq(false))).thenThrow(DataAccessException.class);

    userModuleServiceImpl.updateSubModuleOrder(data, moduleSysId, userId);

I want to throw the Db exception for code coverage . its working if i give expected exception as : Exception.class but not for DataAccessException.class

My method in original class is as following:

public void updateSubModuleOrder(Long[] data, Long moduleSysId, Long userId) {
    try {

        for (int i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
            SubModule subModule=new SubModule();
            subModule.setSubModuleId(data[i]);
            UserSubModuleId userSubModuleId = new UserSubModuleId();
            userSubModuleId.setSubModuleId(subModule);
            userSubModuleId.setUserId(userId);
            userSubModuleId.setUserModuleId(moduleSysId);
            UserSubModule userSubmodule = new UserSubModule();
            userSubmodule = userSubModuleDao.findById(userSubModuleId,
                    false);
catch (DataAccessException ewmsDataExp) {
        LOGGER.error(
                "Database Exception while updateSubModuleOrder because of {}",
                ewmsDataExp.getMessage());
        throw new EWMSServiceException(
                "Database Exception while updateSubModuleOrder"
                        + ewmsDataExp.getMessage());
    } catch (Exception exp) {
        LOGGER.error(
                "System Exception while updateSubModuleOrder because of {}",
                exp.getMessage());
        throw new EWMSServiceException(
                "Database Exception while updateSubModuleOrder"
                        + exp.getMessage());
    }*

i get the error

OTHER TIPS

Change this:

thenThrow(DataAccessException.class)

to

thenThrow(new DataAccessException("..."){ })

Example:

when(userSubModuleDao.findById(any(UserSubModuleId.class),eq(false))).thenThrow(new DataAccessException("..."){});

You can only pass a Class reference when that Exception type has a No-Arg constructor, and the Spring exception does not have one.

Try

Mockito.doThrow(new Exception()).when(mockedObject).methodName(...);

As stated by Jen S:

You can only pass a Class reference when that Exception type has a No-Arg constructor, and the Spring exception does not have one.

My solution was using Mockito:

Mockito.when(mockedObject.method(Mockito.anyString())).thenThrow(Mockito.mock(DataAccessException.class));
