Exception that indicates an evaluation of a property should be discarded, because a condition required by a property was not met by the passed values.
Exception that indicates an attempt was made to register a test that had the same name as a test already registered in the same suite.
Exception that indicates an attempt was made to register a test that had the same name as a test already registered in the same suite. The purpose of this exception is to encapsulate information about the stack depth at which the line of code that made this attempt resides, so that information can be presented to the user that makes it quick to find the problem line of code. (In other words, the user need not scan through the stack trace to find the correct filename and line number of the offending code.)

Trait implemented by exception types that can modify their detail message.
Trait implemented by exception types that can modify their detail message.
This trait facilitates the withClue
construct provided by trait
Assertions
. This construct enables extra information (or "clues") to
be included in the detail message of a thrown exception. Although both
assert
and expect
provide a way for a clue to be
included directly, assertThrows
, intercept
, and ScalaTest matcher expressions
do not. Here's an example of clues provided directly in assert
:
assert(1 + 1 === 3, "this is a clue")
and in expect
:
expect(3, "this is a clue") { 1 + 1 }
The exceptions thrown by the previous two statements will include the clue
string, "this is a clue"
, in the exceptions detail message.
To get the same clue in the detail message of an exception thrown
by a failed assertThrows
call requires using withClue
:
withClue("this is a clue") { assertThrows[IndexOutOfBoundsException] { "hi".charAt(-1) } }
Similarly, to get a clue in the exception resulting from an exception arising out
of a ScalaTest matcher expression, you need to use withClue
. Here's
an example:
withClue("this is a clue") { 1 + 1 should === (3) }
Exception types that mix in this trait have a modifyMessage
method, which
returns an exception identical to itself, except with the detail message option replaced with
the result of invoking the passed function, supplying the current detail message option
as the lone String
parameter.
Trait implemented by PayloadField
exception types that can modify their payload.
Trait implemented by PayloadField
exception types that can modify their payload.
This trait facilitates the withPayload
construct provided by trait
Payloads
. This construct enables a payload object (or modified
payload object) to be included as the payload of a thrown exception. The payload
can then be included in the ScalaTest event that results from that exception. For
example, the payload included in a TestFailedException
will be included
as the payload of the resulting TestFailed
event. Here's an example in
which a GUI snapshot is included as a payload when a test fails:
withPayload(generateGUISnapshot()) { 1 + 1 should === (3) }
Exception types that mix in this trait have a modifyPayload
method, which
returns an exception identical to itself, except with the payload option replaced with
the result of invoking the passed function, supplying the current payload option
as the lone Option[Any]
parameter.
Exception that indicates something was attempted in test code that is not allowed.
Exception that indicates something was attempted in test code that is not allowed.
For example, in a FeatureSpec
, it is not allowed to nest a feature
clause inside another feature
clause. If this is attempted, the construction
of that suite will fail with a NotAllowedException
.
NullArgumentException

Trait implemented by exception types that carry an optional payload.
Trait implemented by exception types that carry an optional payload.
Many ScalaTest events include an optional "payload" field that can be used
to pass information to a custom reporter. This trait facilitates such customization,
by allowing test code to include a payload in an exception (such as TestFailedException
).
ScalaTest looks for this trait and fires any payloads it finds in the relevant ScalaTest event
stimulated by the exception, such as a TestFailed
event stimulated by a TestFailedException
.
(Although in its initial
release there is only two subclasses of PayloadField
in ScalaTest,
TestFailedException
and
TestCanceledException
,
in future version of ScalaTest, there could be more)
For an example of how payloads could be used, see the documentation for trait Payloads
.

Trait that encapsulates the information required of an exception thrown by ScalaTest's assertions and matchers, which includes a stack depth at which the failing line of test code resides.
Trait that encapsulates the information required of an exception thrown by ScalaTest's assertions and matchers, which includes a stack depth at which the failing line of test code resides.
This trait exists so that it can be mixed into two exception superclasses, StackDepthException
,
from which extend several exceptions that do not depend on JUnit, and JUnitTestFailedError
, which
does depend on JUnit. The latter, which requires JUnit be in the classpath, ensures failed ScalaTest assertions are
reported as "failures," not "errors," by JUnit.
Exception class that encapsulates information about the stack depth at which the line of code that failed resides, so that information can be presented to the user that makes it quick to find the failing line of code.
Exception class that encapsulates information about the stack depth at which the line of code that failed resides, so that information can be presented to the user that makes it quick to find the failing line of code. (In other words, the user need not scan through the stack trace to find the correct filename and line number of the problem code.) Having a stack depth is more useful in a testing environment in which test failures are implemented as thrown exceptions, as is the case in ScalaTest's built-in suite traits.

Exception thrown to indicate a test has been canceled.
Exception thrown to indicate a test has been canceled.
A canceled test is one that is unable to run because a needed dependency, such as an external database, is missing.
Canceled tests are ones that complete abruptly with a TestCanceledException
after
starting.

AsyncAssertions
.
NullArgumentException

Exception that indicates a test failed.
Exception that indicates a test failed.
One purpose of this exception is to encapsulate information about the stack depth at which the line of test code that failed resides, so that information can be presented to the user that makes it quick to find the failing line of test code. (In other words, the user need not scan through the stack trace to find the correct filename and line number of the failing test.)
Another purpose of this exception is to encapsulate a payload, an object to be included in a TestFailed
event
as its payload, so it can be consumed by a custom reporter that understands the payload. For example, tests could take a screen
shot image of a GUI when a test fails, and include that as a payload. A custom reporter could listen for such payloads and
display the screen shots to the user.
NullArgumentException

Exception thrown to indicate a test is pending.
Exception thrown to indicate a test is pending.
A pending test is one that has been given a name but is not yet implemented. The purpose of pending tests is to facilitate a style of testing in which documentation of behavior is sketched out before tests are written to verify that behavior (and often, the before the behavior of the system being tested is itself implemented). Such sketches form a kind of specification of what tests and functionality to implement later.
To support this style of testing, a test can be given a name that specifies one
bit of behavior required by the system being tested. The test can also include some code that
sends more information about the behavior to the reporter when the tests run. At the end of the test,
it can call method pending
, which will cause it to complete abruptly with TestPendingException
.
Because tests in ScalaTest can be designated as pending with TestPendingException
, both the test name and any information
sent to the reporter when running the test can appear in the report of a test run. (In other words,
the code of a pending test is executed just like any other test.) However, because the test completes abruptly
with TestPendingException
, the test will be reported as pending, to indicate
the actual test, and possibly the functionality, has not yet been implemented.
Exception that indicates an action that is only allowed during a suite's test registration phase, such as registering a test to run or ignore, was attempted after registration had already closed.
Exception that indicates an action that is only allowed during a suite's test registration phase, such as registering a test to run or ignore, was attempted after registration had already closed.
In suites that register tests as functions, such as FunSuite
and FunSpec
, tests
are normally registered during construction. Although it is not the usual approach, tests can also
be registered after construction by invoking methods that register tests on the already constructed suite so
long as run
has not been invoked on that suite.
As soon as run
is invoked for the first time, registration of tests is "closed," meaning
that any further attempts to register a test will fail (and result in an instance of this exception class being thrown). This
can happen, for example, if an attempt is made to nest tests, such as in a FunSuite
:
test("this test is fine") { test("but this nested test is not allowed") { } }
This exception encapsulates information about the stack depth at which the line of code that made this attempt resides, so that information can be presented to the user that makes it quick to find the problem line of code. (In other words, the user need not scan through the stack trace to find the correct filename and line number of the offending code.)

Trait mixed into exceptions thrown due to a timeout, which offers
a timeout
field providing a Span
representing the timeout that expired.
This trait is used by trait TimeLimitedTests
to detect exceptions thrown because of timeouts, and
for such exceptions, to modify the message to more clearly indicate a test timed out. (Although in its initial
release there is only one subclass of TimeoutField
in ScalaTest,
TestFailedDueToTimeoutException
,
in future version of ScalaTest, there could be more)
Exception that indicates an evaluation of a property should be discarded, because a condition required by a property was not met by the passed values.
This exception is thrown by the
whenever
method defined in traitWhenever
when the given condition is false. TheforAll
methods defined in traitPropertyChecks
catch theDiscardedEvaluationException
and ignore it, moving on to try the next set of parameter values it is checking th property against.
