Hi, I just noticed that tests using @requires_freebsd_version and @requires_linux_version decorator from test.support are never run since this commit (almost 2 years ago):
changeset: 72618:3b1859f80e6d user: Charles-François Natali <neolo...@free.fr> date: Mon Oct 03 19:40:37 2011 +0200 files: Lib/test/support.py description: Introduce support.requires_freebsd_version decorator. ... raise unittest.SkipTest( - "Linux kernel %s or higher required, not %s" - % (min_version_txt, version_txt)) - return func(*args, **kw) - wrapper.min_version = min_version + "%s version %s or higher required, not %s" + % (sysname, min_version_txt, version_txt)) I don't want to blame Charles-François, nobody saw the issue during 2 years! No, my question is: how can we detect that a test is never run? Do we need test covertage on the test suite? Or inject faults in the code to test the test suite? Any other idea? I fixed the decorators in Python 3.3 (84debb4abd50) and 3.4 (f98fd5712b0e).
