== Why is this an issue?
When the code under test in a unit test throws an exception, the test itself fails. Therefore, there is no need to surround the tested code with a ``++try++``-``++catch++`` structure to detect failure. Instead, you can simply move the exception type to the method signature.
This rule raises an issue when there is a fail assertion inside a ``++catch++`` block.
Supported frameworks:
* JUnit3
* JUnit4
* JUnit5
* Fest assert
* AssertJ
=== Noncompliant code example
[source,java]
----
@Test
public void testMethod() {
try {
// Some code
} catch (MyException e) {
Assert.fail(e.getMessage()); // Noncompliant
}
}

=== Compliant solution
[source,java]

@Test
public void testMethod() throws MyException {
// Some code
}
