+# Throws annotation
+
+utPLSQL uses the `%throws` annotation to allow the user to delimit which exception numbers a test must throws.
+
+If `%throws` is specified for one test and nothing is raise or a different exception than the annotated one is thrown, the test is marked as failed.
+
+The framework discards the bad arguments, `--%throws(7894562, operaqk, -=1, -20496, pow74d, posdfk3)` it converts that to this `--%throws(-20496)`.
+If the arguments is empty `--%throws()`,`--%throws`, or only no valid arguments are provided `--%throws(abe, 723pf)` the annotation is ignored.
+
+Example how to use the annotation:
+
+```
+create or replace package example_pgk as
+
+  -- %suite(Example Throws Annotation)
+
+  -%test(Throws one of the listed exceptions)
+  --%throws(-20145,-20146, -20189 ,-20563)
+  procedure raised_one_listed_exception;
+
+  --%test(Throws diff exception)
+  --%throws(-20144)
+  procedure raised_diff_exception;
+
+  --%test(Givess failure when a exception is expected and nothing is thrown)
+  --%throws(-20459, -20136, -20145)
+  procedure nothing_thrown;
+
+end;  
+```
+
+```
+create package body annotated_package_with_throws is
+  procedure raised_one_listed_exception is
+  begin
+      raise_application_error(-20189, 'Test error');
