java.lang.Object
- org.assertj.core.api.AbstractAssert<S,A>
- - org.assertj.core.api.AbstractThrowableAssert<S,A>

Type Parameters:

S - the "self" type of this assertion class. Please read "Emulating 'self types' using Java Generics to simplify fluent API implementation" for more details.

A - the type of the "actual" value.

All Implemented Interfaces:

Assert<S,A>, Descriptable<S>, ExtensionPoints<S,A>

Direct Known Subclasses:

ThrowableAssert

public S hasMessage(String message)
```
    Verifies that the message of the actual Throwable is equal to the given one.
    
    Parameters:
    
    message - the expected message.
    
    Returns:
    
    this assertion object.
    
    Throws:
    
    AssertionError - if the actual Throwable is null.
    
    AssertionError - if the message of the actual Throwable is not equal to the given one.
  - hasCause
```
public S hasCause(Throwable cause)
```
    Verifies that the actual Throwable has a cause similar to the given one, that is with same type and message (it does not use equals method for comparison).
    Example:
```
 Throwable invalidArgException = new IllegalArgumentException("invalid arg");
 Throwable throwable = new Throwable(invalidArgException);

 // This assertion succeeds:
 assertThat(throwable).hasCause(invalidArgException);

 // These assertions fail:
 assertThat(throwable).hasCause(new IllegalArgumentException("bad arg"));
 assertThat(throwable).hasCause(new NullPointerException());
 assertThat(throwable).hasCause(null); // prefer hasNoCause()
 
```
    Returns:
    
    this assertion object.
    
    Throws:
    
    AssertionError - if the actual Throwable is null.
    
    AssertionError - if the actual Throwable has not the given cause.
  - hasNoCause
```
public S hasNoCause()
```
    Verifies that the actual Throwable does not have a cause.
    
    Returns:
    
    this assertion object.
    
    Throws:
    
    AssertionError - if the actual Throwable is null.
    
    AssertionError - if the actual Throwable has a cause.
  - hasMessageStartingWith
```
public S hasMessageStartingWith(String description)
```
    Verifies that the message of the actual Throwable starts with the given description.
    
    Parameters:
    
    description - the description expected to start the actual Throwable's message.
    
    Returns:
    
    this assertion object.
    
    Throws:
    
    AssertionError - if the actual Throwable is null.
    
    AssertionError - if the message of the actual Throwable does not start with the given description.
  - hasMessageContaining
```
public S hasMessageContaining(String description)
```
    Verifies that the message of the actual Throwable contains with the given description.
    
    Parameters:
    
    description - the description expected to be contained in the actual Throwable's message.
    
    Returns:
    
    this assertion object.
    
    Throws:
    
    AssertionError - if the actual Throwable is null.
    
    AssertionError - if the message of the actual Throwable does not contain the given description.
  - hasMessageEndingWith
```
public S hasMessageEndingWith(String description)
```
    Verifies that the message of the actual Throwable ends with the given description.
    
    Parameters:
    
    description - the description expected to end the actual Throwable's message.
    
    Returns:
    
    this assertion object.
    
    Throws:
    
    AssertionError - if the actual Throwable is null.
    
    AssertionError - if the message of the actual Throwable does not end with the given description.
  - hasCauseInstanceOf
```
public S hasCauseInstanceOf(Class<? extends Throwable> type)
```
    Verifies that the cause of the actual Throwable is an instance of the given type.
    Example:
```
 Throwable throwable = new Throwable(new NullPointerException());

 // assertion will pass
 assertThat(throwable).hasCauseInstanceOf(NullPointerException.class);
 assertThat(throwable).hasCauseInstanceOf(RuntimeException.class);
