How to continue test after JUnit ExpectedException if thrown?

Question

I have set up some JUnit (4.12) test with the ExpectedException feature, and I would like the test to continue after the expected exception. But I never see the log '3', as the execution seems to stop after the exception, event if catch?

Is this actually possible, and how?

@Rule
public ExpectedException exception = ExpectedException.none();

@Test
public void testUserAlreadyExists() throws Exception {
    log.info("1");

    // Create some users
    userService.createUser("toto1");
    userService.createUser("toto2");
    userService.createUser("toto3");
    Assert.assertTrue( userService.userExists("toto1") );
    Assert.assertTrue( userService.userExists("toto2") );
    Assert.assertTrue( userService.userExists("toto3") );

    log.info("2");

    // Try to create an existing user
    exception.expect(AlreadyExistsException.class);
    userService.createUser("toto1");

    log.info("3");
}
