[SalesForce] Test Class Issue with UNKNOWN_EXCEPTION, portal account owner must have a role

Im getting above error when i was trying to run my test class. In my test class i will create an Account, Contact. And this contact id will be used in my original code to create Community user.
I noticed following help article from SFDC. But couldn't figure out how to achieve. https://help.salesforce.com/HTViewSolution?id=000175522&language=en_US

Here they asked to create User on the Test class and Runas this user. But in my case, the community user will be created in the code. Please share any thoughts.
Here is the detailed exception,

System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first
error: CANNOT_INSERT_UPDATE_ACTIVATE_ENTITY, caused by:
System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 11; first
error: UNKNOWN_EXCEPTION, portal account owner must have a role: []

You would need to create a test user which has a role defined, and then runas test user. With this all the account or contacts which are getting created will have Owner as this test user, and now when in your code the community user from your code it wont throw an error.

This test user is different from Community user, "test user" is just used to remedy the issue which you are facing in your test class.

You could resolve this by using a static Boolean variable in a class. Quoting from the success community

In order to avoid the situation of recursive call, make sure your trigger is getting executed only one time. To do so, you can create a class with a static boolean variable with default value true.

In the trigger, before executing your code keep a check that the variable is true or not.

Once you check make the variable false.

[SalesForce] How to create the case with an attachment and topics using Test class

One thing you should fix is to bulkify your sendEmail call. You only get 10 invocations per transaction, so even inserting 11 Case records will hit a LimitException. You also have a query you need to bulkify (on Attachment).

Email Bulkification

List<Messaging.SingleEmailMessage> emails = new List<Messaging.SingleEmailMessage>();
for (Case record : trigger.new)
{
    Messaging.SingleEmailMessage email = new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage();
    // set attributes
    emails.add(email);
}
Messaging.sendEmail(emails);

Query Bulkification

Map<Id, List<Attachment>> attachments = new Map<Id, List<Attachment>>();
for (Attachment record : [
    SELECT Name, Body FROM Attachment
    WHERE ParentId IN :trigger.newMap.keySet()
]){
    if (!attachments.containsKey(record.ParentId))
        attachments.put(record.ParentId, new List<Attachment>());
    attachments.get(record.ParentId).add(record);
}

for (Case record : trigger.new)
{
    List<Attachment> relatedAttachments = attachments.get(record.Id);
    if (relatedAttachments != null)
    {
        // add attachments an email
    }
    // add email to collection
}
// send emails
