Sorry, but that would be at odds with the fundamental design of doctest which is principally designed to test documentation in the form of docstrings (which, it goes without saying actually *are* strings). Try using another tool for the job. The unittest module is well suited for tests that need to understand object equality. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3332> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
