The traceback module provides a number of functions that can be used to display a traceback of the current (or any other) exception. In addition, it can produce a traceback of the current state of the execution stack even without an exception: Example (type this into the Python interpreter): import traceback try: assert False except: traceback.print_exc() and you'll get a traceback (a very short one in this case): Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 2, in ?
