The essence of the function remains unchanged - you're still asserting

I'm not sure I understand...
If "a particular exception is raised", every thing is good and there is no
error to report. ie... the code being tested did the right thing.
I *think* that in this case the propoent wants to be able to make
further assertions about the raised exception (e.g., to test its message).
Exactly.
Cheers,
