R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: The convention in the stdlib is to name the mixin classes TestXXXBase. Granted, a lot of those inherit from TestCase. I have no objection to calling them Mixin instead, I'm just pointing out that there is an existing convention.
(As an aside, when I first ran into the Base pattern it was in a file where the Base did subclass TestCase, and it took me forever to figure out that the Base test wasn't actually getting run. So a decorator is definitely superior to listing the test cases that actually run elsewhere in the file!) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14408> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
