Anyway, here is the code snippet:

infix fun <T : RuntimeException> (() -> Unit).shouldThrow(type: Class<T>) {
    try {
        this()
    } catch (e: T) {
        return
    } catch (e: Exception) {
        throw IllegalStateException("Thrown unexpected exception ${e::class.java.canonicalName}")
    }

    throw IllegalStateException("Didn't throw exception")
}

class GLException : java.lang.RuntimeException()

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    try {
        { throw GLException() } shouldThrow (GLException::class.java)
        println("reached here")
    } catch (e: Exception) {
        e.printStackTrace()
    }

    try {
        { throw IllegalAccessException() } shouldThrow (GLException::class.java)
        println("didn't reach here")
    } catch (e: Exception) {
        e.printStackTrace()
    }
}

If somebody can point out exactly why it works perfectly even though @miha-x64 says it shouldn't - i would be grateful.
