This course will teach you how to write unit tests with JUnit 5, covering topics like why unit tests are important, the structure of good unit tests, assertions, assumptions and parameterized tests and more.

Java Unit Testing with JUnit 5

# assertThrows() method ###

Assertions API provide static `assertThrows()` method. This method helps in asserting that execution of the supplied `Executable` throws an exception of the `expectedType` and returns the exception. 

- If no exception is thrown, or if an exception of a different type is thrown, this method will fail.
- It follows the inheritance hierarchy, so the assert will pass if the expected type is `Exception` and actual is `RuntimeException`.


There are basically three useful overloaded methods for assertThrows:-
