Sure, why not? After all, it was suggested in another posting that objects should be automatically put into the pickle jar if they are subject to a TestSuite.run() test. > Put differently, > how likely do you think it is that some old pickle unpickles and passes > superficial tests, but gives a mathematically incorrect answer if you call > some specialized method? Put differently, would you rather have no test at all than a superficial consistency test on a wide range of objects, versions and machines? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
