Comment (by bruno):

 Replying to [comment:10 jdemeyer]:
 > You should add an example where the factorisation currently fails (say,
 over the ring of integers of some number field).

 Actually, polynomials over the ring of integers of a number field belong
 to the class `MPolynomial_polydict` (defined in
 `multi_polynomial_element.py`) and not to `MPolynomial_libsingular`
 (defined in `multi_polynomial_libsingular.pyx`). So it does not make sense
 to test this in this file.¹

 It would be interesting to have such an example of a non-working case.
 Though I do not know for which ring(s) do the polynomials belong to the
 class `MPolynomial_libsingular`.

 ¹ One may do the same thing for rings of integers of a number field to
 obtain a factorization algorithm. The point is that the returned factors
 are not in the rings of integers in this case, so we have to reconstruct
 them. It's a bit more work than in the current case.
