STINNER Victor added the comment: I dislike the idea of opening all $HOME/.idlerc/ directory and store their content in memory.
If a unit test writes into $HOME, we already have an issue. Unit tests must not modify the user configuration. If an unit test is interrupted, there is a high risk of leaving the modified configuration. If idle tests need a well defined configuration, I suggest to start by modifiying idlelib.config.idleConf to use a temporary directory, or mock the whole object. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30869> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
