InvalidateStateException needs to show the error messages in the message when it's thrown
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HV-228
URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-228
Project: Hibernate Validator
Issue Type: New Feature
Affects Versions: 3.1.0.GA
Reporter: Ken Egervari
I dunno if you fixed this in 4.0 releases. To make testing easier, I think the error messages should be viewable when the exception is thrown. I know it's possible to inspect the exception for these errors, but within a unit test, this is just too much work and it's annoying.
In practice, we create all these objects and do tests. Sometimes these objects get sent to the database and are saved.
Now, let's say 3 validation constraints aren't met. On the outset, the developer is 100% blind and must code in a try/catch and print out the list of errors. When this happens over and over and over... it's just tedious. When a test fails because an unexpected validation exception is thrown, I don't want to have to do this - I want to instantly see what went wrong so I can make the changes to my test case and run it quickly.
I think this change would facilitate much faster test/code cycles, and it shouldn't be hard to add in.
Thanks
