When implementing error handling, ensure comprehensive test coverage by testing multiple error scenarios, edge cases, and boundary conditions. Don't just test the happy path - validate that your code properly handles invalid inputs, out-of-range values, and error propagation.
When implementing error handling, ensure comprehensive test coverage by testing multiple error scenarios, edge cases, and boundary conditions. Don’t just test the happy path - validate that your code properly handles invalid inputs, out-of-range values, and error propagation.
Test cases should verify:
Example from the discussions:
// Test multiple invalid port scenarios
for (const value of [NaN, Infinity, -1, -Infinity, 1.1, 9999999]) {
// Test each invalid case
}
// Verify specific error codes
res.write('world', (err) => {
strictEqual(err.code, 'ERR_STREAM_WRITE_AFTER_END');
});
// Test custom error properties are preserved
assert.strictEqual(e.abc, 123);
assert.strictEqual(e.stack.includes('at async Object.test'), true);
This approach ensures robust error handling that gracefully manages failure scenarios and provides meaningful feedback to users and developers.
