Hi all. A api issue that has been annoying me for some while is that we don't have common tests for functions. That means that incompatibilities are only fixed if someone points them out in an issue, and API changes like https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/pull/5152
I see two possible ways forward: a) Make the functions private and deprecate the public interface, like k_means, lars_path, .... b) add common tests. b) means that they all need to have a consistent interface. Vighnesh said he would work on this, but I'm not sure it will work and I'm not entirely sure how hard it is. Some functions are not algorithms, but ``train_test_split`` or metrics etc which are tested separately, so we might need to blacklist modules etc. I want to make sure that this is the way we want to go before putting any serious effort into it.
