New description:
With this patch, all parents and elements can inherit code from
categories, even extension types. This includes in particular
generic tests (see TestSuite(...).run()):
{{{
sage: ZZ.category()
Category of commutative rings
sage: TestSuite(ZZ).run(verbose = True)
running ._test_additive_associativity() . . . pass
running ._test_an_element() . . . pass
running ._test_associativity() . . . pass
running ._test_element_pickling() . . . pass
running ._test_not_implemented_methods() . . . pass
running ._test_one() . . . pass
running ._test_pickling() . . . pass
running ._test_prod() . . . pass
running ._test_some_elements() . . . pass
running ._test_zero() . . . pass
}}}
It is to be expected that this will catch bugs in many places in the
library.
