Check that the specified Exception is raised and that the error message
matches a given regular expression pattern. This may be a regular
expression object or a string containing a regular expression suitable
for use by `re.search()`.

This is a port of the `assertRaisesRegexp` function from unittest in
Python 2.7. However, with our migration to `pytest`, please refrain
from using this. Instead, use the following paradigm:

with pytest.raises(_exception) as exc_info:
func(*args, **kwargs)
exc_info.matches(reg_exp)
for use by `re.search()`. This is a port of the `assertRaisesRegexp`
function from unittest in Python 2.7.
