Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#28989: test: Fix test by checking the actual exception instance
55e3dc3 test: Fix test by checking the actual exception instance (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
The `system_tests/run_command` test is broken because it passes even with the diff as follows:
```diff
--- a/src/test/system_tests.cpp
+++ b/src/test/system_tests.cpp
@@ -90,7 +90,7 @@ BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(run_command)
});
}
{
- BOOST_REQUIRE_THROW(RunCommandParseJSON("echo \"{\""), std::runtime_error); // Unable to parse JSON
+ BOOST_REQUIRE_THROW(RunCommandParseJSON("invalid_command \"{\""), std::runtime_error); // Unable to parse JSON
}
// Test std::in, except for Windows
#ifndef WIN32
```
The reason of such fragility is that the [`BOOST_REQUIRE_THROW`](https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_83_0/libs/test/doc/html/boost_test/utf_reference/testing_tool_ref/assertion_boost_level_throw.html) macro passes even if the command raises an exception in the underlying subprocess implementation, which might have a type derived from `std::runtime_error`.
