New submission from David Leonard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Patch to allow unit tests to test for exceptions through a 'with'
statement. Resulting (failing) test would look like this:
import unittest
class T(unittest.TestCase):
def runTest(self):
with self.assertRaises(KeyError):
raise ValueError
This saves having to put exception raising tests into a try/except
block, which is cool. And by cool I mean totally sweet.
