Hi

I have a unique constraint on an alias field (I dont want two users with the same alias) on a mysql database in this way :

ALTER TABLE User ADD UNIQUE(alias);

I have a test client like this (pseudo code)

public void setUp() {
 // Set up user1 entity with alias1
 // Set up user2 entity with alias2
}

public void testUnique() {
 try {
 // Try and make user2 have the same alias as user2
 sessionFacade.setAlias(user2, user1.getAlias());
 } catch (TransactionRolledbackLocalException e) {
 // Everything is fine we dont allow duplicity.
 }
}

public void tearDown() {
 try {
 someOtherEntity.remove()
 } catch (TransactionRolledbackLocalException e) {
 // Why did I catch the exception only here? why not at the testUnique?
 }
}

My problem is that no exception was catched at the testUnique() method However I did catch that exception (with a description of wrong uniqueuness in alias) only at the tearDown() !!! Is that the behaviour that should be ? looks very wired to me

PS

my transaction is "required"
