Ned Deily <n...@acm.org> added the comment: A better fix for the program is to mark the test_loop thread as a daemon thread. As the threading module documentation says, by default threads started from the main thread are non-daemon threads and the "entire Python program exits when no alive non-daemon threads are left." The test case terminates properly by adding a thread.daemon = True after the threading.Thread call in run().
