HandlerMethodValidationException is not handled properly #3

Open ericafenyo opened 2 months ago

ericafenyo commented 2 months ago

The exception thrown is HandlerMethodValidationException when @NotBlank is declared directly on method parameters such as @PathVariable. However, we were expecting MethodArgumentNotValidException, which is currently handled, to return a custom error response.

The spring docs explained they type of exception thrown during validation and proposed a way to handle each case.
