Test API: Switch to unchecked exceptions

Previously, checked exceptions were used as this is the common practice
in our code base. However, there's no reason to stick with checked
exceptions for the test API as the operations it offers should always
succeed. Any occurring exceptions would only indicate a very wrong state
of the system, for which an IllegalStateException is a good choice.

Switching to unchecked exceptions slightly complicates the code of the
implementation of the test API. This seems acceptable considering that
unchecked exceptions will make it easier for tests to use that API (e.g.
in streams).
