New submission from Facundo Batista: So, you could do:
exc = self.assertRaises(ValueError, somefunc, someargs) And then, explore "exc" as will. Yes, you can get the exception if you use assertRaises as a context manager, but that leads to more cumbersome code: with self.assertRaises(ValueError) as cm: somefunc(someargs) exc = cm.exception ---------- messages: 276334 nosy: facundobatista priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: assertRaises should return the exception in its simple form _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28135> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
