Hi, I updated my bisect_test.py script to simplify its command line:
https://github.com/haypo/misc/blob/master/python/bisect_test.py To debug a reference leak in test_os, now just type: $ ./python bisect_test.py -R 3:3 test_os Example of output: --- (...) Failing tests (1): * test.test_os.ExecTests.test_execve_invalid_env Bisection completed in 24 iterations and 0:02:11 --- In 2 minutes, you get the guilty: test_execve_invalid_env()! It's now fully automated! I also added --fail-env-changed option to regrtest. Using this option, you can find which test leaked a file, and modified any other resource tracked by regrtest. For examle, I used this command to find which test method of test_subprocess created a core dump file: $ ./python bisect_test.py --fail-env-changed test_subprocess Later, I will try to integrate this tiny tool in Python. Maybe somewhere in Tools/. Or better, maybe directly in regrtest?
