Hmm. This might be simplified to:
if 0: # Preamble...
g.cls()
if c.isChanged(): c.save()
ic = c.importCommands.reload()
else:
ic = c.importCommands
The call to c.importCommands.reload() could return a new GeneralTestCase
instance and this instance could set a reload flag. The later call to
ic.markdownUnitTest(p...) would then reload markdown and linescanner when
the reload flag is set.
But... leoTest.leo defines several other subclasses of unittest.TestCase
besides GeneralTestCase. So maybe we need variants of
c.importCommands.reload to handle the other kinds of TestCase.
I'm not in a hurry to do any of this, since the present importer cases
work. Still it's a good idea to keep these ideas in the back of our minds.
This kind of simplification could be useful when creating other kinds of
unit tests.
