Test exception handling with HttpCalloutMock
The new mock classes are great! Except for one thing I have a block of code that does something like this
try {
//do a callout
} catch(Exception ex) {
//handle an expection
}
I want to test the handling of an exception part of the code. Initially I though I could just create a mock class that throws an exception in the response method something like this
@isTest public class MockHttpCalloutGenerator implements HttpCalloutMock { public HTTPResponse respond(HTTPRequest req){ throw new CustomException('Exception occured during callout'); } }
The problem is that when I run the test I get a System.UnexpectedException: Exception occured during callout. And it doesn't exercise my exception handling. Is there a way to do this, or am I hosed for testing callout exception handling?
Can't see any responses to this but wondered if you found a solution. I too would like to be able to throw an exception to test callout exception handling!
Please let me know if you found a way.
Thanks,
Andrew
