Previously a non-string, non-regex second argument could cause the test
to always pass.
It seems like this would be useful to fix in 3.4 too.
You will note that the change got a porting note in What's New. It will
only break tests (that are currently no-ops), not code, so I'd be fine
with backporting it, but the original issue did not call for that.
Exposing buggy tests sounds like a good thing to me :-)
If we fix it in 3.4, should we fix it in 2.7 as well?
If the *Regex methods are there, yes, IMO.
I agree. Since I and others am writing tests for all current versions of
Idle, I would like a buggy test to fail no matter where it is first
tested. Currently, I would tend to start with 3.4.
