Python: AssertionError

First, that's the codes that I need test:

class ParserError(Exception):
    pass

class Sentence(object):

    def __init__(self, subject, verb, object):
self.subject = subject [1]
        self.verb = verb[1]
        self.object = object[1]

def peek(word_list):
    if word_list:
        word = word_list[0]
        return word[0]
    else:
        return None

def match(word_list, expecting):
if word_list:
        word = word_list.pop(0)

        if word[0] == expecting:
            return word
        else:
            return None
    else:
        return None

def skip (word_list, word_type):
    while peek(word_list) == word_type:
        match(word_list, word_type)

def parse_verb(word_list):
    skip(word_list, 'stop')

    if peek(word_list) == 'verb':
        return match(word_list, 'verb')
    else: 
        raise ParserError("Expected a verb next.")


def parse_object(word_list):
    skip(word_list,'stop')
    next = peek(word_list)

    if next == 'noun':
        return match(word_list, 'noun')
    if next == 'direction':
        return match(word_list, 'direction')
    else:
        raise ParserError('Expected a noun or direction next.')

def parse_subject(word_list, subj):
    verb = parse_verb(word_list)
    obj = parse_object(word_list)

    return Sentence(subj, verb, obj) # 执行 class Sentence

def parse_sentence(word_list):
    skip(word_list, 'stop')

    start = peek(word_list)

    if start == 'noun':
        subj = match(word_list, 'noun')
        return parse_sentence(word_list, subj)
    elif start == 'verb':
        # assume the subject is the player then
        return parse_subject(word_list, ('noun', 'player'))
    else:
        raise ParserError("Must start with subject, object, or verb not: %s" % start)

The list I typed in is [('verb', 'taste'),('direction','good'),('noun','pizza')] The first value in this list is ('verb', 'taste') and its word_type is 'verb', it fits to the word_type I gave in my coding but I got error AssertionError: None != 'verb' I think it's unreasonable.

def test_skip():
    skipA = skip([('verb','taste'),('direction','good'),('noun','pizza')], 'verb')
    assert_equal(skipA, 'verb')
#    assert_equal(skipA, None)

You need a return in your skip function. You're returning in peek and match, but the scope of you calling skip and wanting a value from there means you need to return out of there, as well.

There might be a issue witg 'skip' method, because 'skip' is not returning any value which mean 'skip' return None

The function skip doesn't return any value (which means that it returns None).

So skipA is None and the assertion fails.
