New submission from Mitchell Model:

In looking at the source for unittest.TestCase I was very surprised to see 
quite a few assertion methods that are not included in the module 
documentation. Every available assertion method should be included in the 
library documentation. Users should not have to look at the source to see 
what's available — in fact, why would it even occur to the typical user to do 
that?

Also, I think the phrase "provides several assert methods to check for and 
report failures" is an understatement — it provides MANY assert methods.

I think "assertion method" is a better term than "assert method".
