New submission from Ben Ranker <bran...@emory.edu>: TextTestResult.__init__(...) calls super(TextTestResult, self).__init__() with no args. If a custom TextTestResult descendant has a complex inheritance hierarchy that puts another class between TextTestResult and TestResult in the __mro__, then that class doesn't receive the common stream, descriptions, and verbosity args. If it needs them to function then the __init__ chain explodes.
See attached breakunit.py for an example of this. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: breakunit.py messages: 138744 nosy: branker priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: unittest.TextTestResult.__init__ breaks under complex __mro__ type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file22418/breakunit.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12376> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
