## Overview

This factory determines what class of exception should be raised when Mocha detects a test failure.

This class should only be used by authors of test libraries and not by typical “users” of Mocha.

For example, it is used by `Mocha::Integration::MiniTest::Adapter` in order to have Mocha raise a `MiniTest::Assertion` which can then be sensibly handled by `MiniTest::Unit::TestCase`.

- Integration::MiniTest::Adapter

## Class Attribute Details

### .exception_class ⇒ `Exception`

Determines what class of exception should be raised when Mocha detects a test failure.

This attribute may be set by authors of test libraries in order to have Mocha raise exceptions of a specific class when there is an unexpected invocation or an unsatisfied expectation.

By default a `Mocha::ExpectationError` will be raised.

Returns:

- (`Exception`) —

  class of exception to be raised when an expectation error occurs
