---------------------------------------------
{quote}what is the intent of this JIRA?{quote}
I believe the intent is to create a test if we can confirm that it can happen,
and if it cannot happen, to create follow-up tickets to address the bad design
of the exception handling in ColumnVisibility.
> Add test for VisibilityParseException

> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: tserver

> I'm not sure this exception can ever actually happen. I think
> ColumnVisibility throws BadArgumentException in all the cases where the
> VisibilityParseException would have been thrown. It's somewhat unfortunate
> that the BadArgumentException is the RuntimeException, and the checked
> exception can never happen.
> We need a test to see if we can make VisibilityParseException happen when
> BadArgumentException doesn't, and possibly do something about
> BadArgumentException, by either wrapping it with a checked exception, or
> something else to reflect the fact that it's more likely to happen than
> VisibilityParseException.
