C03P03 - Exception silencing

Implement a context manager called ExceptionSilencer, which can be used as follows:

with ExceptionSilencer(ValueError):
    int("aa")

print("We can reach this point, because the exception was not propagated")

We want our exception silencer to only silence the specific exception class that we are providing.

For example:

with ExceptionSilencer(Exception):
    int("aa")

print("We cannot reach this point, because the exception was propagated")

Alongside the solution, add tests to show that the solution is behaving as expected.

Hints

1. Have 2 Python files - exception_silencer.py and exception_silencer_tests.py
2. Consider using the is operator.
