Android Unit Test Handle Expected Exception (Kotlin)

Solution 1: expected

Great for simple cases.

@Test(expected = IndexOutOfBoundsException::class)fun testException() {    val items = listOf(1, 2, 3)    val value = items[10]}

Solution 2: ExpectedException Rule

Sometimes detecting an exception class is not sufficient, where I need to

Detect the exception which cause this exception
Check the message of the exception

@Rule@JvmFieldval expectedException = ExpectedException.none()    fun expectFirestorePermissionDenied() {    expectedException.expect(ExecutionException::class.java)    expectedException.expectCause(isA(FirebaseFirestoreException::class.java))    expectedException.expectMessage(StringContains("PERMISSION_DENIED"))}@Testfun createUserByPublic() {    val task = db.collection("users")        .document("test_create_user_public")        .set(mapOf("roles" to listOf("user")))    expectFirestorePermissionDenied()    Tasks.await(task, 10, TimeUnit.SECONDS)}

Solution 3: Try Catch

@Testfun testExceptionWithTryCatch() {    try {        val items = listOf(1, 2, 3)        val value = items[10]        fail("IndexOutOfBoundsException expected")    } catch (e: IndexOutOfBoundsException) {        assertThat(e.message, StringContains("Invalid index"))    }}
