[issue12681] unittest expectedFailure could take a message argument like skip does

2021-12-16 Thread Serhiy Storchaka 


Serhiy Storchaka  added the comment:

Such change would break a lot of existing interfaces.

* addUnexpectedSuccess() has a single parameter. The change will add the second 
parameter and will break subclasses of TestResult.
* addExpectedFailure() has two parameter. The change will add the third 
parameter and will break subclasses of TestResult.
* unexpectedSuccesses is a list of tests. The change will make it a list of 
2-tuples and will break users of TestResult.
* expectedFailures is a list of 2-tuples. The change will make it a list of 
3-tuples and will break users of TestResult.

It is too destructive change. I think we can live without a message argument 
for expectedFailure().

Thanks, Adam.  I'm afraid it may be a while before Michael (or anyone else) 
gets a chance to review it and think about the issue some more.

Adam Collard added the comment:

I've got a patch for this, but I'm a bit worried about the impact on the 
documented API. I've tried to do the best I could to minimize it through use of 
keyword-arguments but I'm a bit unsure about the change (and the docs too!)

I hope this is useful to someone!

Maybe we could add an expected_issue(id) decorator to test.support.

It would be nice if expectedFailure took a bug number and printed a url to the 
tracker.

Well, it would be nice for the Python test suite, maybe not so useful for 
external users of the api. Something for regrtest rather than unittest I think.

2011-08-02 Thread R. David Murray 

New submission from R. David Murray rdmur...@bitdance.com:

I think that it would be good for expectedFailure to take a message argument 
like skip does.  My thought is that it would be printed both when it is 
triggered (the test fails as expected) so that one case from the verbose output 
why the test is expected to fail, and when the test passes unexpectedly.  My 
specific use case is OS bugs, where we could mark a test as an expected failure 
instead of a skip, and then we would see the unexpected pass when the OS fixes 
the bug, but in the meantime the verbose output would show the 'skip' reason.

Hmm.  I suppose this means I want expectedFailureIf, too...

Too late I'm afraid as expectedFailure not expectedFailure() is the decorator.

2011-08-02 Thread Michael Foord 

Michael Foord mich...@voidspace.org.uk added the comment:

Well, expectedFailure could dispatch on the type of the argument, with 
different behaviour for strings and anything else (presumed to be a function / 
method). That would be inconsistent with the api for skipping though. (I'm not 
wild on the message argument to the skip decorators - I keep forgetting it.)
