Raymond Hettinger <[email protected]> added the comment:
After discussion on python-dev, it seems that API lock-in precludes any change
to the package structure. So, the main proposals left are the addition of new
better aliases for some of the functions and changing to the docs so that the
new name is clear:
assertLE(self, other)
old name: AssertLessEqual
. . .
Also, I we should still dedocument assert<sometype>Equal and its brethren and
leave assertEqual as the primary interface.
At some point, we could add an option to assertEqual to allow user control of
how failing results are displayed. This would let us separate content from
presentation (i.e. a==b vs how a diff would get presented).
