Yes, even if the traceback isn't shown, it will still toss a 500 giving 
you the same issue. paste.fixture assumes you want a 200 response, 
anything else and it blows. If you are expecting a 500 response, 
telling it you expect this will make it not throw an exception there 
(according to the docs). So I believe you'd want to do the request like 
so:
resp = app.get('/something', status=500)

Which will then work (though I haven't tested this personally....). 
Docs here:
http://pythonpaste.org/testing-applications.html#the-tests-themselves

Let me know how that works out.

HTH,
