Thanks for the tips. For most I have to read a ‘little’ first, so I will not implement them immediately. Another question. Is it acceptable to have it in the module itself, or should I put it in something like test_<module>.py? The code for testing is bigger as the code for the implementation, so I am leaning to putting it in a separate file. -- Cecil Westerhof Senior Software Engineer LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/cecilwesterhof -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
