I have defined a custom error but if I test if custom error gets
raised it fails if I test for Exception the test passes

class CustomError(Exception):
    """
    This exception is my custom error
    """

class Company(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=200)

    def test_error(self):
        raise CustomError('hello')


and in my tests.py:

import unittest
from api.models import
Company,Customer,Employee,Location,Product,ProductCategory,AllreadyPayedError,CustomError

#class AllreadyPayedException(Exception): pass

class CompanyTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
    def setUp(self):
        self.company = Company.objects.create(name="lizto")

    def test2(self):
        self.assertRaises(CustomError, self.company.test_error)


======================================================================
ERROR: test2 (lizto.api.tests.CompanyTestCase)
