Syntax

'Declaration

public bool ThrowTestFailureException { get; set; }

Property Value

true to have the test manager raise conformance exceptions; otherwise, false. The default is false.

Remarks

The TestFailedExceptionType switch controls what type of exception the test manager raises in response to a conformance error.

If the TestMethodReturnType switch is set to none or "void", the TestPassedReturnValue, TestFailedReturnValue, and TestFailedExceptionType switches are ignored and exceptions are not caught by the test case. In other words, any exceptions generated by the test case are thrown to and handled by the test harness.

If the TestMethodReturnType, TestPassedReturnValue, and TestFailedReturnValue switches are set to values other than their default values, each test case performs its steps and checks within a try-catch block. If, in addition, the TestFailedExceptionType switch is set to a value other than none, each test case performs its steps and checks within a try-catch block that catches only the specified exception type. Such exceptions specifically indicate that the test case encountered a conformance error, and the test manager raises such exceptions only if the test manager's ThrowTestFailureException property is set to true.
