What happen when a controller raises a custom exception?

Hello, some controllers of mine raises security exception.

environments/test.rb defines
config.action_controller.consider_all_requests_local = true

  1. I want to raise from a controller, and have the exception visible in
    test, inside assert_raise blocks but I don’t.

  2. I defined rescue_action_in_public() which (I’m sure) is not called
    during tests.

  3. But during tests, when my controller raises
    AppException::SecurityError it is not caught by the assert_raise block.

So I added this, to see what happens :

def rescue_action_locally(exception)
p exception
raise exception
end

The exception is well printed on console but re-raising lead to Class:

Message: <“You have a nil object when you didn’t expect it!\nYou might
have expected an instance of ActiveRecord::Base.\nThe error occurred
while evaluating nil.[]=”>

I really don’t understand what happen because after re-raising no code
of mine is running, it leave my scope …

So I wonder how to have these exceptions visible in test ?

Thanks

Try rescue_from:
