Test no response from server

I'm making a request in a web service.

How am I going to test the case where there is no response from server ( cause maybe server is down ) ?

I mean how can I test it on emulator : is there a way I can send a request and block responses to see how my app is handling this case? Also what should I do in such a case?

                StringRequest stringRequest=new StringRequest(Request.Method.POST,reg_url,
                new Response.Listener<String>() {

                    @Override
                    public void onResponse(String response) {

                        try {
                            JSONArray jsonArray=new JSONArray(response);
                            JSONObject jsonObject=jsonArray.getJSONObject(0);

                            String message=jsonObject.getString("message"); //message is to be send by server
                            builder.setTitle("Server Response");
                            Toast.makeText(this,message,Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

                        } catch (JSONException e) {
                            e.printStackTrace();
                        }


                    }
                }, new Response.ErrorListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {

                    }
                });

Consider the following code : 

        try {
            DefaultHttpClient httpclient = getClient();

            HttpGet request = new HttpGet();
            SchemeRegistry schemeRegistry = httpclient
                    .getConnectionManager().getSchemeRegistry();
            schemeRegistry.register(new Scheme("https",
                    new TlsSniSocketFactory(), 443));
            URI website = new URI(getString(R.string.u3));

            request.setURI(website);
            HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(request);
            in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(response
                    .getEntity().getContent()));


            result = in.readLine();
            // Log.d(TAG, "Version Check result = " + result);



        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            // Log.e(TAG, "Error in http connection " + e.toString());
        }

You need to set a timeout & when the server is down, it will probably go in the Catch block where you can do whatever you want to do when the server is down / you receive no response from the server
