Its easier writing something like this self.assertRaises(AssertionError, func, arg1, arg2) instead of: try: func(arg1, arg2) except AssertionError: pass else: raise AssertionError, \ "Test should have raised an exception." # or something You could look at the em_viz tests or the gui_thread tests (there is only one of these in gui_thread though) for concrete examples. eric> at this at all, and am unlikely to run through all the tests eric> to make the changes now. :) But maybe for future tests. Sure, I was just suggesting. And this is useful only when you want to make sure that something raises an error. prabhu
