New submission from Jason R. Coombs <jar...@jaraco.com>:
In Python 3.6, one could find doctests on a namespace package:
```
$ mkdir foo
$ python3.6
Python 3.6.4 (v3.6.4:d48ecebad5, Dec 18 2017, 21:07:28)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import foo
>>> foo.__file__
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: module 'foo' has no attribute '__file__'
>>> import doctest
>>> doctest.DocTestFinder().find(foo)
[]
```
In recent builds of Python 3.7, these namespace packages inherited a `__file__`
attribute whose value is `None`, which causes DocTestFinder.find to fail:
```
$ python
Python 3.7.0b2 (tags/v3.7.0b2:b0ef5c979b, Feb 27 2018, 20:38:21)

>>> import doctest
>>> import foo
>>> foo.__file__
>>> doctest.DocTestFinder().find(foo)

line 687, in getsourcefile

```
Scanning through the recent changes, issue32305 seems to be related, but when I
look at the code ancestry, I can't see the related commits on the 3.7 branch,
so I couldn't immediately confirm if it is indeed implicated.
I encountered this issue when testing jaraco.functools on Python 3.7.0b2 on
macOS, but did not encounter it on Python 3.7.0a4+ as found on the Travis
nightly builds. More details are logged in
https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3276.
I'm not sure yet whether inspect.getfile should be adapted to raise a TypeError
in this case, or if doctest.DocTestFinder.find should account for getfile
returning None.
If we choose to update inspect.getfile, I should caution there's a bit of
copy/paste there, so two branches of code will need to be updated.
Barry, I'd love to hear what your thoughts are on this and what you'd like to
do. And definitely let me know if I can help.
