New submission from STINNER Victor: The PEP 420 -- Implicit Namespace Packages introduces packages which have no __init__.py file and can be made of multiple packages. It looks like doctest doesn't support them.
I would like to convert the Lib/test/ of the Python standard library into such package for the issue #26295. I propose to use an heuristic when the package is only made of one directory (when module.__path__ only contains one entry): use this directory to lookup for requested test files. Attached patch implements that. ---------- files: doctest_package.patch keywords: patch messages: 262429 nosy: brett.cannon, eric.snow, haypo, ncoghlan priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: doctest doesn't support packages type: enhancement versions: Python 3.6 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file42288/doctest_package.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26641> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
