lithium\test\Unit::assertException()

public method

Assert that the code passed in a closure throws an exception or raises a PHP error. The first argument to this method specifies which class name or message the exception must have in order to make the assertion successful.

Parameters

  • mixed $expected

    A string indicating what the error text is expected to be. This can be an exact string, a /-delimited regular expression, or true, indicating that any error text is acceptable.

  • \Closure $closure

    A closure containing the code that should throw the exception.

  • string $message

Returns

boolean

true if the assertion succeeded, false otherwise.
