spock - issue #240

JUnit-compliant behavior when a TestRule swallows an exception

Posted on Feb 29, 2012 by Grumpy Cat

When a TestRule swallows an exception thrown from a test method, the test will nevertheless be reported as failed by Spock. We should change this so that it behaves like in JUnit.

Another difference is that with Spock, base.evaluate() will not throw an exception even if the test method did. This means that TestWatcher rules won't work correctly.

Is there any workaround for this one? Or just use deprecated MethodRules?
