Jim DeLaHunt added the comment: I have pushed a branch for this issue to my cpython fork:
https://github.com/JDLH/cpython/tree/bpo-29562_failing_test_getgroups_on_os_x It modifies test_getgroups in test_posix.py to give better diagnostics in the event of a test failure. It says specifically which groups were in id -G, and posix.getgroups(), but not in the other. % ./python.exe -m unittest -v test.test_posix.PosixTester.test_getgroups test_getgroups (test.test_posix.PosixTester) ... FAIL ====================================================================== FAIL: test_getgroups (test.test_posix.PosixTester) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/jdlh/workspace/cpython/Lib/test/test_posix.py", line 841, in test_getgroups self.assertEqual(len(symdiff), 0, msg) AssertionError: 2 != 0 : id -G and posix.groups() should have zero difference. Groups in id -G but not posix.groups(): [(701, 'com.apple.sharepoint.group.1'), (398, 'com.apple.access_screensharing')] Groups in posix.groups() but not id -G: [] (Effective GID (20) was disregarded.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 1 test in 0.020s I don't think this branch is ready yet to submit to the main codebase, but it may help people diagnose the issue. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29562> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
