I'm trying to test a suspend method which first tries to reach an API, but if that throws an exception, would fall back to a local method. However, it doesn't appear the catch in the suspend method is being executed

```override suspend fun validate(thingy: String): Result {
  return try {
    webClient.validate(thingy)
  } catch(e: Exception) {
    offlineValidator.validate(thingy)
  }
}```

here's the test method:
```@Test
fun testOfflineValidation() = mainCoroutineRule.runBlockingTest {
    val result = sut.validate("stuff")
}```

Is the exception an `Exception` or a `Throwable`.?

in my fake, I do `throw Exception()` . The real one is going to use Retrofit, so I'm not sure what it does

Hmmm…. then your code catches the right type of exception… not sure what is going on.
Try to debug it, step by step….

I have, but it doesn't go into the catch block

nevermind, I wasn't setting up my fake properly
