New submission from Michael Foord <mich...@voidspace.org.uk>: unittest.TestCase.assertEqual uses the new type equality functions for comparing containers.
In Python 2.7 assertMultilineEqual should be the default comparison method for unicode strings and in Python 3.2 for comparing strings. assertMultilineEqual should only use difflib for showing differences for strings above a certain length. (For short strings the extra output is actually more confusing than helpful.) ---------- assignee: michael.foord messages: 93424 nosy: michael.foord severity: normal status: open title: Make assertMultilineEqual default for unicode string comparison in versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7032> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
