testInheritsFromExemplarException

public void testInheritsFromExemplarException()

Test to ensure that Exception classes inherit from Throwable via the exemplar version of Exception rather than from the standard Exception.

testNoArgConstructor

public void testNoArgConstructor()

See Also:

Exception.Exception(String)

testOneThrowableConstructor

public void testOneThrowableConstructor()

Test that a constructor which takes a single argument of type Throwable is available and can be used to create an instance of the Exception class.

See Also:

Exception.Exception(Throwable)

testStringThrowableConstructor

public void testStringThrowableConstructor()

Test that a constructor which takes two arguments, a String and a Throwable in that order, is available and can be used to create an instance of the Exception class.

See Also:
