Guido van Rossum added the comment: You can list me as the expert for typing.py, since I wrote it. :-) (However, until mid August I have limited availability since I'm on vacation.)
This looks indeed like a test order dependency. The three failures are all basic failures where an empty set, dict or list is expected to be an instance of the corresponding ABC (AbstractSet, Mapping, Sequence) defined in typing.py. Those ABCs in turn derive (in a slightly sneaky way) from the corresponding ABCs in collections.abc. My hunch is that some other test messes with the ABC registration cache and doesn't restore it -- or typing.py's sneaky way of deriving from collections.abc has a subtle bug in it. Maybe something is calling reload(collections.abc)? I haven't done any research to confirm or deny this theory. It shouldn't be too hard to find the (probably only a handful of) tests that mess with the registration cache. ---------- nosy: +gvanrossum _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24635> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
