test class for catch block

Hi Developers,
I have written test class but it is not covering catch block.
APex class is here. 
try
               {  
                 
                   history.Status__c='success';
                   history.Description__c=myPlainText;
                   //if(newIncident !=null)
                   history.Incident__c=newIncident.ID;
                   if(user != null && user.size() > 0)
                   history.account__c=user[0].BMCServiceDesk__Account_Name__c;
                   //emailhistory.add(history);
                   insert history;
               }
               catch(Exception ex){
      myPlainText = '';
      RF_Exception_Util.createException('McKesson','handleInboundEmail','McKessonNewIncidentCreation',ex.getMessage(),null);
    }

RF_Exception_Util is a class and createException is a static method. from here we are storing exception in some custom object.
Any suggestion will be appriciated.

Hi Abhishek,

We need to figure out how we can fail a record to insert in History object, so that it will throw an exception. 

For eg: if this is an custom object for Email History, please do not populate parentId field  and mark this field as required. Then it will throw error. 

Thanks,
Gaurav
