I have an AKKA actor that currently throws an exception when receved n unhandled message. How do I write a test case to prove that this exception is thrown ?
The following assertion fails
expectMessageClass(MyException.class)
I do see the exception being thrown
I also tried using Junit's (expectException = MyException.class) which also fails. What is the correct way of testing unhandled messages for AKKA actors
expectMessageClass is not valid since exceptions are bit different from messages, and thus the handling here differs. An example of exception testing can be seen here: https://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/testing.html (section "The Way In-Between....")
