Benedikt Ritter commented on LANG-701:
--------------------------------------
Hello James,
nice idea to use ExpectedException for testing the exception's message. However
we do not use it anywhere else in the code, so it would be a bit strange to
have this one test that uses it. I'm fine with just making sure the expected
exception is thrown.
The {{join(Iterable, String)}} method treats null as empty string. Your
implementation of {{joinWith(String, Object...)}} writes "null" to the result
if the varargs array contains null entries. Would be better if both methods
behave the same way.
It would be helpful to add a list of example to the JavaDoc of your method, so
that users can see easily how the new method behaves for different inputs.
br,
Benedikt

> I missed the functionality of joining strings with the space separator in one
