Remove redundant names
----------------------
The following attribute names exist only as synonyms for other names.
They are to be removed, leaving only one name for each attribute in
the API.
``TestCase`` attributes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ``assertEqual``
* ``assertEquals``
* ``assertNotEqual``
* ``assertNotEquals``
* ``assertAlmostEqual``
* ``assertAlmostEquals``
* ``assertNotAlmostEqual``
* ``assertNotAlmostEquals``
* ``assertRaises``
* ``assert_``
* ``assertTrue``
* ``assertFalse``
Although you may prefer the 'failIf' and 'failUnless' names, the
consensus in the *last* discussion was that the 'assert*' names were to
be preferred.
I protest the removal of the assert names - and in the absence of likely
consensus (and barring a dictat of course) I suggest this part of the
proposal be excised.
