1. About assertRaisesRegex, sorry, you're right. We can use it with "with" statement. Prior to this, I used it like this: with self.assertRaisesRegex(PermissionError, "Operation not permitted"): bla bla Then I realized I have to use it like this: with self.assertRaisesRegex(PermissionError, "Operation not permitted") as _: bla bla 2. About this code, it is deliberate: + with self.assertRaises(PermissionError) as cx: + os.chown(support.TESTFN, uid_1, gid) + os.chown(support.TESTFN, uid_2, gid) Normal user does not have permission to use chown to change the user of the file. Basically, I need to find the other user other than the user of support.TESTFN. By using chown with two users, it will be guaranteed the case will be tried. There is other way though, iterating all users and check whether the user is not the owner of support.TESTFN or not. If you object it, I can use this way. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file35771/add_unit_test_os_chown_v4.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20069> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
