Using JUnit 5 - Reading Suduko CSV file throws NumberFormatException: For input string: “”

User_Q4NJA

Using Java 1.8 and JUnit 1.5, am trying to read a sample csv file for standalone sudoku app through which I try to read the CSV file through a JUnit test.

SudokuTest.java

package com.sudoku;

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertTrue;

public class SudokuTest {

    @Test
    public void isValidRow() throws Exception {
        Sudoku sudoku = new Sudoku();
        sudoku.loadCsvFile("valid.csv");
        System.out.println("hello " + sudoku.isValidRow());
        assertTrue(sudoku.isValidRow());
    }
}

valid.csv:

9,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1
4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2,3
7,8,9,1,2,3,4,5,6
5,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1
2,6,7,8,9,1,2,3,4
8,9,1,2,3,4,5,6,7
3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2
6,7,8,9,1,2,3,4,5
9,1,2,4,3,5,6,7,8

When I run the JUnit file manually in IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate Edition, I get the following exception:

java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: ""
	at java.base/java.lang.NumberFormatException.forInputString(NumberFormatException.java:68)
	at java.base/java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:662)
	at java.base/java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:770)
	at com.sudoku.Sudoku.loadCsvFile(Sudoku.java:150)
	at com.sudoku.SudokuTest.isValidRow(SudokuTest.java:15)

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: 0 is invalid. Must be in between 1 - 9.
	at com.sudoku.Sudoku.loadCsvFile(Sudoku.java:156)
	at com.sudoku.SudokuTest.isValidRow(SudokuTest.java:15)

This is weird because when using the debugger, it iterates and does parse values - I don't see a single 0 or "" anywhere in my code?

Why does this break?

Is there a better way to rewrite this Sudoku.loadCsvFile()method?
