Why not document the official recommendation in the docs? Adding another gimmick isn't very useful. It doesn't add a functionality. It doesn't even make it significantly easier to write tests (unless you have more test classes than test methods). And it means that people have to remember two idioms instead of one. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14534> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
