Vajrasky Kok added the comment: Yes, I agree with you, R. David Murray.
But there are some reasons why I try to resurrect this dormant test: 1. This test was disabled on 19 January 2008. http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/859bf85a556a It has been more than 5 years. Many things happened. 2. In the last commit about this test, they used httplib not http library to access the server. If you see this commit: http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/5756b295b6fb , the intuition (at least my intuition) suggests that the similar way can be applied to the dormant test. This commit is in 2012. 3. The http server in the test_xmlrpc.py differs than the http server 5 years ago. But again, you are maybe right. So let's hear from the person who disabled this test. Christian Heimes, what do you say about this ticket? ---------- nosy: +christian.heimes _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18799> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
