New submission from Erno Tukia <erno.tu...@iki.fi>: ./python -m test --help -S/--slow -- print the slowest 10 tests
-S is used to continue running tests after an aborted run. It will maintain the order a standard run (ie, this assumes -r is not used). This is useful after the tests have prematurely stopped for some external reason and you want to start running from where you left off rather than starting from the beginning. in Lib/test/regrtest.py opts, args = getopt.getopt(sys.argv[1:], '...S...', [..., 'slow', ... , 'start=', ...]) for o, a in opts: elif o in ('-S', '--start'): start = a elif o in ('-S', '--slow'): print_slow = True At the moment -S (no args) and --slow (no args) are the same, not what the documentation says and not how the code executes (-S goes with --start). Help says nothing about --start. --slow or --start needs a new short opt, and corrected documentation. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation, Tests messages: 150792 nosy: docs@python, etukia priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: regrtest ambiguous -S flag type: behavior versions: Python 3.2, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13726> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
