How to test for I/O failure?
I have a try catch block in UI component’s controller class. The catch block catches IOException thrown by FXMLLoader’s static ‘load()’ method, I think.
The exception is caught, logged using logger + shown to user in the form of a custom alert.
I’ve tried using mockito and mocking fxml loader’s static load() method alongside TestFx for Junit5… but nothing seems to work.
How does one test for IOException thrown as a result of user interaction?

You could pass the name of the FXML file as an argument or similar
and then use the name of a nonexisting file
or you say "that shouldn't happen, I am not testing it"
@dan1st | Daniel by Mocking the controller’s method or FXMLLoder?
that might be possible as well
but I meant changing adding a parameter to the method
This method is an onAction event handler method though
