Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: Here are most popular idioms which deserve special assertion methods:
assertHasAttr(obj, name) == assertTrue(hasattr(obj, name)) assertIsSubclass(type, expected) == assertTrue(issubclass(type, expected)) assertTypeIs(obj, expected) == assertIs(type(obj), expected) assertTypedEqual(actual, expected) == assertIs(type(actual), type(expected)) and assertEqual(actual, expected) # or assertIsInstance(actual, type(expected))? assertStartsWith(actual, prefix) == assertTrue(s.startswith(prefix)) assertEndsWith(actual, suffix) == assertTrue(s.endswith(suffix)) assertUnorderedSequenceEqual(first, second) == assertTrue(all(x in second for x in first)) and assertTrue(all(x in first for x in second)) and assertEqual(len(first), len(second)) ---------- nosy: +serhiy.storchaka _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19645> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
