STINNER Victor added the comment: On Python 2.7, listing *all* test cases with "./python -m test --list-cases" fails on the following test files:
* test_multibytecodec_support * test_robotparser * test_xpickle regrtest of Python 2.7 uses the test_main() function of each test file, if the function is defined. Whereas --list-cases is more written as a raw discovery function listing all cases which inherit from unittest.TestCase. These 3 files have base test cases which are "abstract" or configured below. Options: * Modify --list-cases to tolerate failures and report them at exit * Modify these 3 tests to make them more "test discovery"-friendly * Use test_main() function if available but modify its behaviour to only list test cases, instead of running them I would prefer to limit changes in Python 2.7 branch, so IMHO the second option is the best: modify the 3 tests. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30523> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
