Exception Testing

What is Exception Testing? Explain in Detail.

I have never heard about exception testing.Will you tell me how you get familiar with this term?

Exception Testing :confused:

I guess is, to test if the application is showing the error messages appropriately and is recovering from the errors to continue running the application.

There is a concept called Exception Handling in s/w programming. It is carried out as one of the phases of SDLC.:eek: Here, the expected errors in the s/w application are handled so that, the correct and complete error message is displayed to the user, rightly recovered, execution status is updated and the error is logged for future reference.

Exception Testing may be all about testing to see if such development techniques are followed or not.
