Why? Peter had a reasonable question which, AFAICT, doesn't depend on any more detailed knowledge that what he had to work with. What I don't understand about py.test (and trying it out seems unlikely to answer this) is why it uses the assert statement. unittest used to do that, too, but then it was pointed out that that breaks when python -O is used, so unittest switched to self.assert_ &c. Does py.test have some way around that? John -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
