New submission from paul j3 <ajipa...@gmail.com>:
https://bugs.python.org/issue45235 argparse does not preserve namespace with subparser defaults was passed and put into the latest release with rather obvious buggy behavior. This means that the unittest file does not adequately test for overlapping 'dest' in the main and subparsers. It probably also does not test many (any?) cases of user provided namespace. Issue9351 added a test, but it only tested defaults set with parser.set_defaults(foo=1) xparser.set_defaults(foo=2) not the more common practice of setting defaults in add_argument. 45235 adds one test, but again only for xparser.set_defaults(foo=1) It doesn't test for user inputs, as with ['X','--foo=3'] ---------- messages: 405110 nosy: ALSchwalm, paul.j3, rhettinger priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: missing unittests for overlapping dest when using subparsers _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45631> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
