It's silly to have to import a package's submodule directly, since in this case that only introduces another module name that the developer has to keep track of, just to gain access to a solitary function. This patch hoists marconi.tests.util.helpers.expect into marocni.tests.util so that it can be referenced more naturally by the test author. Accordingly, the Hacking.rst guide has been updated to allow this sort of thing (with some discretion). Implements: blueprint grizzly-debt Change-Id: Iad2e4f728aa4826d99bec2c599e2947a87eb5945

"""A context manager to validate raised expections.

Can be used as an alternative to testtools.ExpectedException.

|
|
Notable differences:
|
|
1. This context manager accepts child classes of the
|
|
given type, testing that an "except" statement
|
|
referencing the given type would indeed catch it when
|
|
raised by the statement(s) defined inside the context.
|
|
2. When the expected exception (or a child thereof) is
|
|
not raised, this context manager *always* raises
|
|
an AssertionError, both when a different exception
|
|
is raised, and when no exception is raised at all.
|
|
|
|
:param *exc_type: Exception type(s) expected to be raised during
|
|
execution of the "with" context.
