That's fair. How do other builtins validate their pickling implementation? Since the pickling goes through __reduce__/__reduce_ex__ we could instead test that those methods return the expected results, that pickling roundtrips, and that unpickling those exact byte strings produces the expected value? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40636> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
