Comment (by vdelecroix):

 Hello Miguel,

 The `TestSuite` is here to detect this kind of things...
 {{{
 sage: B = BraidGroup(3)
 sage: TestSuite(B).run()
 }}}
 The tests are run on elements that are obtained from the method
 `an_element` or `some_elements`. Right now it uses a generic method which
 does not rely on `_element_constructor_`. But as you can see (with the old
 version)
 {{{
 sage: TestSuite(B([1,2])).run()
 Traceback (most recent call last):
 ...
 The following tests failed: _test_category
 }}}

 Please, implement in `BraidGroup_class`:
  - a method `an_element` that return a braid
  - a method `some_elements` that return some braids (built in different
 ways)
 And then put the `TestSuite` test in the `__init__`.

 Vincent
