numpy.testing.assert_raises

numpy.testing.assert_raises(exception_class, callable, *args, **kwargs)[source]

Fail unless an exception of class exception_class is thrown by callable when invoked with arguments args and keyword arguments kwargs. If a different type of exception is thrown, it will not be caught, and the test case will be deemed to have suffered an error, exactly as for an unexpected exception.
