Class AssertionError

Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable

public class AssertionError
extends Error

An assertion error normally occurs as a result of the assert statement added in JDK 1.4, to indicate that an assertion failed. There are enough constructors to ensure that new AssertionError(expression) will work for all expressions, regardless of type, as if the error message were given by the string "" + expression. This extends Error, because you usually do not want to inadvertently trap an assertion failure.
Since:
1.4
