I agree with Berker. Even without any exceptions, the help message given is not what add_argument_group and add_mutually_exclusive_group intend.

You can see

usage: argparse_test.py [-h] [--foo] -u URL -p PROJECT [--dump] --mergeInput
                        MERGEINPUT [--removeDisabled] -c CHECKERS

Sets the checkers of a klocwork project

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --foo
  -c CHECKERS, --checkers CHECKERS
                        File which lists the checkers to be enabled.

There is not group name and still optional arguments. And the command line does not show exclusive. I believe they are not designed to work like this.
