Why is this slower?

I would think the commented code would be faster (fewer loops), but it is not (because of function calls). #Average user_time = 5.9975 over 4 iterations inSRC = set([bio.name for bio in bios.values()]) inEB = set([bio.name for bio in bios.values() if bio.eb_title]) inWP = set([bio

unittest.TestCase and functools.partial don't seem to mix

Hi List, I want to make some test case classes that can have some data passed in to modify the way they behave. I can't see a straightforward manner to pass data to an __init__() method of a class derived from unittest.TestCase, or to pass data to a test function within that class. Being a C+
