Kamilla added the comment: I've implemented a piece of code to check if the expected_regex is a string or regex object. If it's not it raises a TypeError exception. The check is inside the __init__ method of the _AssertRaisesBaseContext class so it will always check the expected_regex in all methods that use the _AssertRaises.
I've added tests too. They are verifying the assertRaisesRegex and the assertWarnsRegex methods. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file34346/validate_regex.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20145> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
