How to test exception?

Rails
1

def rescue_action_in_public(exception)
case exception
when LoginException
headers[“Status”] = “401 Unauthorized”
goto_login
…

so I

def login!
…
raise LoginException
end

but I don’t know how to test it under functionals test

when ran rake test:functionals always show me exception so can’t to test
step 2 goto_login

2

You can use ruby’s assert_raise method

assert_raise LoginException do

whatever

end
