No docs, if it is agreed I can apply I'll write docs. After a long discussion we arrived at some semblance of consensus on the Testing In Python mailing list that this was a good thing (tm). Only one -1 (thought that cleanUp should be a method) and Holger Krekel was only +0 because he thinks changes in unittest should be conservative (but he isn't actually using it). Many others were +1 - Fred Drake, Titus Brown, Laura Creighton, Robert Collins, Jonathan Lange, Kumar McMillan and others. It provides a clean and simple pattern for the cleaning up of resources - avoiding the need for nested try finallys and the manual tracking of resources. It can also avoid the need for duplication of cleanup code. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file13612/unittest-cleanup.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5679> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
