<h1 id="overview">Overview</h1>
<p>Following reading describes implementation details of query execution process. It may clarify some
internals of GraphQL runtime but is not required to use it.</p>

<p>There are 3 types of errors in GraphQL:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Syntax</strong>: query has invalid syntax and could not be parsed;</li>
<li><strong>Validation</strong>: query is incompatible with type system (e.g. unknown field is requested);</li>
<li><strong>Execution</strong>: occurs when some field resolver throws (or returns unexpected value).</li>
</ul>
<p>Obviously, when <strong>Syntax</strong> or <strong>Validation</strong> error is detected - the process is interrupted and
the query is not executed.</p>
<p>Execution process never throws exceptions. Instead, all errors are caught and collected in
execution result.</p>
<p>GraphQL is forgiving to <strong>Execution</strong> errors which occur in resolvers of nullable fields.
If such field throws or returns unexpected value the value of the field in response will be simply
replaced with <strong>null</strong> and error entry will be registered.</p>
<p>If an exception is thrown in the non-null field - error bubbles up to the first nullable field.
This nullable field is replaced with <strong>null</strong> and error entry is added to the result.
If all fields up to the root are non-null - <strong>data</strong> entry will be removed from the result<br />
and only <strong>errors</strong> key will be presented.</p>
