New submission from Georg Brandl: Our test suite currently contacts a range of hosts for different "online" tests, including python.org hosts. This has led to sudden breakages in the past, e.g. when www.python.org changed URLs or switched to https by default.
It would probably a good idea to consolidate as much as possible into accessing a new VM called something like "testsuite.python.org", where the necessary services can be kept running regardless of the necessities of actual python.org services. First step to do this is to compile a list of tests that could use the VM, and a list of services that need to be running. ---------- components: Tests messages: 229505 nosy: dstufft, ezio.melotti, georg.brandl priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: set up and use VM for net access in the test suite type: enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22650> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
