if you don’t mind using NumPy (which comes with your Python(x,y)), you may want to look at the np.testing module which defines, among others, a assert_almost_equal function.
The signature is np.testing.assert_almost_equal(actual, desired, decimal=7, err_msg='', verbose=True)
>>> x = 1.000001
>>> y = 1.000002
>>> np.testing.assert_almost_equal(x, y)
AssertionError:
Arrays are not almost equal to 7 decimals
ACTUAL: 1.000001
DESIRED: 1.000002
>>> np.testing.assert_almost_equal(x, y, 5)
>>> np.testing.assert_almost_equal([x, x, x], [y, y, y], 5)
>>> np.testing.assert_almost_equal((x, x, x), (y, y, y), 5)
