Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org> added the comment:

I think it would be great to test the stdlib’s mapping classes against common 
tests; there is a patch to add more MutableMapping methods to dbm classes for 
example, and it was not trivial to get good test coverage.

Not sure about the status of the module though, i.e. if we should officially 
support people using mapping_tests to check their code; it would be very useful 
for classes that don’t inherit from an ABC, but the whole test package is not 
intended for public use.
