R. David Murray added the comment:

If your code is catching an exception generated by an assert statement, your 
code is using assert incorrectly.  There is never any reason, as far as I can 
see, to catch an assert outside of a testing framework, and in a testing 
framework you definitely want to be catching an AssertionError when you are 
trying to catch an assert failing.  Making it some other error would just 
confuse the testing framework.
