Ezio Melotti added the comment: The two signatures of assertRaisesRegex are: assertRaisesRegex(exception, regex, callable, *args, **kwds) assertRaisesRegex(exception, regex, msg=None)
IIUC what you are saying is that if you forget the regex and call assertRaisesRegex(exception, callable) the test will pass. I think it would be ok to add a check to see if the second argument is a callable or None (or maybe check if it's a string or regex object?), and give an appropriate error message if it's not. ---------- keywords: +easy _______________________________________ 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
