Chris Jerdonek added the comment: Senthil, in my experience, whenever documentation is added that documents new aspects of behavior (e.g. is not just a rewording of existing documentation), tests are always added simultaneously (if not already present) to ensure that the code doesn't regress against the new documentation.
Todd, DRY means "don't repeat yourself." You can look it up on Wikipedia, etc. Identical chunks of code are repeated several times which make it harder for others to see how the test cases differ from each other (as well as making the code harder to maintain). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16278> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
