Well, not really an answer as I haven't checked if it break-circuits, but:

assert_array_equal.

From the documentation:

Raises an AssertionError if two array_like objects are not equal.

Try Except it if not on a performance sensitive code path.

Or follow the underlying source code, maybe it's efficient.
