New issue 615: ValueError on compound assert with percent https://bitbucket.org/hpk42/pytest/issue/615/valueerror-on-compound-assert-with-percent
Tom V: Assertions like `assert 1 % 1 or False` or ``assert True and 1 % 1`` fail with: `ValueError: unsupported format character ')' (0x29) at index 7`. This behaviour is not seen with `py.test --assert=reinterp` or `--assert=plain`. Example: def test_high_odd(): n = 20 high = n > 10 assert high and (n % 2 > 0) def test_simple_percent_error(): assert 1 % 1 and False # no ValueError def test_var_high_odd(): n = 20 high = n > 10 odd = n % 2 > 0 assert high and odd $ py.test percent_error.py === test session starts === platform linux2 -- Python 2.7.6 -- py-1.4.25 -- pytest-2.6.4.dev1 collected 3 items percent_error.py FFF === FAILURES === ___ test_high_odd ___ def test_high_odd(): n = 20 high = n > 10 > assert high and (n % 2 > 0) E ValueError: unsupported format character ')' (0x29) at index 17 percent_error.py:5: ValueError ___ test_simple_percent_error ___ def test_simple_percent_error(): > assert 1 % 1 and False E ValueError: unsupported format character ')' (0x29) at index 7 percent_error.py:8: ValueError ___ test_var_high_odd ___ def test_var_high_odd(): n = 20 high = n > 10 odd = n % 2 > 0 > assert high and odd E assert (True and False) percent_error.py:15: AssertionError === 3 failed in 0.01 seconds === Happy to have a go at writing a failing test in `TestAssertionRewrite`. _______________________________________________ pytest-commit mailing list pytest-commit@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pytest-commit
