Hi, In a unit test, I want to verify that a function returns a cookielib.LWPCookieJar object. What is the correct way of doing that?
1) First I tried to figure out its type with type(return_value) but it is <type 'instance'> 2) return_value.__class__ .__name__ gives 'LWPCookieJar', which is bettter 3) isinstance(return_value, cookielib.LWPCookieJar) seems to be the best way, however somewhere I read that using isinstance is discouraged Thanks, Laszlo -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
