The [Google Java Style Guide §6.2][style] states: | ||
|
||
> It is very rarely correct to do nothing in response to a caught exception. | ||
> (Typical responses are to log it, or if it is considered "impossible", rethrow | ||
> it as an AssertionError.) | ||
> | ||
> When it truly is appropriate to take no action whatsoever in a catch block, | ||
> the reason this is justified is explained in a comment. | ||
When writing tests that expect an exception to be thrown, prefer using | ||
[`Assert.assertThrows`][assertthrows] instead of writing a try-catch. That is, | ||
prefer this: | ||
|
||
```java | ||
assertThrows(NoSuchElementException.class, () -> emptyStack.pop()); | ||
``` | ||
|
||
instead of this: | ||
|
||
```java | ||
try { | ||
emptyStack.pop(); | ||
fail(); | ||
} catch (NoSuchElementException expected) { | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
