Don’t throw Exception

Hi. Today I want to talk about a common problem in many frameworks I encountered over the course of my carrier as a Java dev / automation engineer, whatnot. Throwing Exceptions.

Hides exceptions This one should be obvious. When a method throws exception you can never be sure what kind of exceptions it handles....
