I'm not sure what you mean. That except clause up there will only handle ValueErrors. Anything else that comes up will "error" the test. (Not a failure, mind you, but it still wouldn't pass..)
because even if it goes in the last assert will make it always fail
try:
raise NotImplementedError
except NotImplementedError:
assert True,"True passes"
assert False,"but here it crashes"
>python -u "assertTest.py"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "assertTest.py", line 5, in ?
assert False,"but here it crashes"
AssertionError: but here it crashes
>Exit code: 1
You could also use a boolean if you want.got_exception = Falsetry:do_something()except NotImplementedError:got_exception = Trueassert got_exception
now that one does pass, but then if you have more then one exception to catch, they you will have to print out the exception name or something. I believe for now using Alberto's idea is better. although I posted a ticket and I got the correct answer. http://nose.python-hosting.com/ticket/80
import nose.tools
@nose.tools.raises(NotImplementedError)
def test_something():
