How to test this in the best way?

One idea was for the error situations to write messages to files and
then later when running the tests to compare the error messages output
to the previously saved output.

Is there anything better?



Maybe I am wrong because I don't understand your scenario: If your application is like a command, it has to return an error code to the system, a distinct number for each error condition. The error code is easier to test than the stdout/stderr.
