While I agree having more tests are a good thing, I'm not sure if the test in PR 11437 should be merged as it's not specifically testing a feature of the mock module. patch.dict() basically does the following operation (ignoring possible AttributeErrors): # Keep the original one to use later. d = original_dict.copy() original_dict.update(new_dict) I think the relationship between dict and OrderedDict (including any other dict subclasses and dict-like objects) and anything related to insertion order should be tested either in test_dict or in test_ordered_dict. Also, the test can be simplified, but I will let other core developers chime in with their thoughts before reviewing PR 11437 on GitHub. ---------- nosy: +berker.peksag _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue24928> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
