Why can't I see exceptions thrown with TestNG?

Viewed 855

I'm using TestNG with gradle:

compile group: 'org.testng',  name: 'testng', version: '6.11'

I'm using IntelliJ to run my tests. However, when one of my methods throws an exception, it doesn't show me what exception was thrown:

Failed test

The startDb method threw an exception, and was correctly marked as failed, but I can't find any way for me to actually see the exception that was thrown (without wrapping the method in a try-catch).

Method:

StartDb Method

The specific method doesn't show anything either:

Specific method results

Is this supposed to be occurring? How am I supposed to debug why tests are failing if I don't get any information from TestNG?
