Handling Exceptions: Message Processing

Just as using and handling exceptions is an integral part of writing code, testing these exceptions is vital to testing your project.

In this exercise, you will practice the syntax of JUnit's class instance assertion. You are given a method which converts a string to uppercase, but throws a custom RuntimeException if the string is null. The task is to write unit tests for it.
