How to raise a socket "104 connection reset by peer error"

[loial]

For testing purposes I want my code to raise a socket "connection reset by peer" error, so that I can test how I handle it, but I am not sure how to raise the error.

Any advice appreciated

Arbitrary exceptions can be raised with the raise keyword. In Python 3.3, that exact error got its own builtin exception:
http://docs.python.org/3.3/tutorial/errors.html#raising-exceptions
http://docs.python.org/3.3/library/exceptions.html#ConnectionResetError

In earlier versions of Python, you will have to raise OSError and set its errno attribute.
