Python,无法使assert_raises正常工作

我目前正在做Zed A. Shaw的“学习Python困难之路”,而且我在使用assert_raises时遇到了很多麻烦。这是我在测试文件中使用的代码:

def test_parseVerb():
    assert_raises("ParserError",parser.parse_verb,[('stop', 'the'),
                                                   ('noun', 'bear')])

这是PowerShell给我的错误:

======================================================================
ERROR: tests.parser_tests.test_parseVerb
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: issubclass() arg 2 must be a class or tuple of classes

我不知道说实话是什么,如果有人能提供帮助,我将不胜感激!

谢谢!

修改

def parse_verb(word_list):
    skip(word_list, 'stop')

    if peek(word_list) == 'verb':
        return match(word_list, 'verb')
    else:
        raise ParserError("Expected a verb next.")

答案 0 :(得分:4)

您需要提供异常的实际类作为第一个参数,而不是包含名称的字符串,例如

assert_raises(ZeroDivisionError, operator.div,  1, 0)

文档实际上在标准模块unittest中,nose将名称改为pep8。
