Michael Foord <mich...@voidspace.org.uk> added the comment: Damn. If assertSameElements has already shipped with the existing implementation then we can't change it. The documentation really needs clarifying to make it clear that it ignores duplicates.
I would be happy with a 'check_order' argument to assertSequenceEqual defaulting to True, and slightly prefer that to a new method. FWIW the http://code.google.com/p/python-unittest-backport/ project is quite out of date. I am intending to do my own port (before PyCon) that subclasses unittest so that it can interoperate with code using the Python 2.4-2.6 standard library unittest. I may get in touch with the project owner to see if I can join him on his project. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7832> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
