Comment (by Tim Graham):
Maybe I have a faulty understanding of what you're trying to say, but for
example:
{{{ #!python
class TestStringMethods(unittest.TestCase):
def test_upper(self):
self.assertEqual('foo'.upper(), 'FOO')
}}}
I would call `TestStringMethods` a test case and `test_upper` a test
method. My impression is that you would call `test_upper` a test case? (If
so, what's a test method?)
Under my definitions, I do think the unittest docs are confusing because a
test method seems more like an "individual unit of testing" than a test
case.
