test_traceback's PurePythonExceptionFormattingMixin does not fail correctly #125514
Description
class PurePythonExceptionFormattingMixin:
def get_exception(self, callable, slice_start=0, slice_end=-1):
try:
callable()
self.fail("No exception thrown.")
except:
return traceback.format_exc().splitlines()[slice_start:slice_end]
self.fail simply raises an exception, so putting it in a try..except is not going to work.
