R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

I don't think assertLE is enough of an improvement over assertLessEqual to be 
worth adding yet more deprecated names to unittest. So I'm -0 on this change in 
general.  (I'd be -1 except that it would be kind of nice to have the names be 
shorter :)

If the change is made, then assertEqual should become assertEQ, and 
assertNotEqual should become assertNE.

Another option is to go the other way, and change assertLess to assertLessThan. 
 That is, make the spelling consistently be the spelled out version of the 
abbreviation used in the special methods and elsewhere in the docs.  This would 
involve far fewer name changes.
