R. David Murray added the comment: I think it would be confusing for assert to raise anything other than an AssertionError, so I also think this should be rejected.
It might be interesting for there to be a way to call unittest's assert methods in a debug context (that is, without having to have a test case around), but that is a very non-trivial (and probably impractical) thought :) ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18642> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
