Category: Modules Group: Python 2.3 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Rejected Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nicholas Riley (nriley) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: fix for external test regression in test.regrtest Initial Comment: A detailed description of the bug introduced in Python 2.3 is here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php? func=detail&aid=798274&group_id=5470&atid=105470 This patch implements the solution as suggested in the report: if a testdir argument is provided and the test module is not in a package, it attempts to import modules from that directory. This restores compatibility with the test suites I wrote in Python 2.2, and does not interfere with the current behavior as used by the Python regression test suite. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Collin Winter (collinwinter) Date: 2007-03-11 21:10 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1344176 Originator: NO regrtest's purpose is to test Python; third-party projects wishing to use regrtest in their own test suites would do well to customize it for their particular needs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nicholas Riley (nriley) Date: 2003-10-02 15:09 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=34933 Sorry, I'm not familiar with Python patch policies, but it seems a second 2.3.x release is about to be released without this patch included. This makes it difficult for users of the test suite I wrote to use it, because they have to replace their version of regrtest.py with mine, or go back to Python 2.2. Is there anything else I need to do in order to get this version incorporated? Thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=808210&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
