[Zope3-dev] doctest: Get type of object

2006-01-24 Thread Florian Lindner
Hello,
I'm currently writing a test in a README.txt and I want to make sure that 
returned object a is of type zope.app.x. How can I test that?

Thanks,

Florian

I've tried:

Failed example:
homeFolder #doctest: +ELLIPSIS
Expected:
zope.app.file.file.File object at ...
Got nothing


I've also tried it without the #doctest

Why do I get just nothing?

Thanks,

That's expected if (and only if) `homeFolder` is bound to `None`. 
What happens if you change the line to:

  print homeFolder #doctest: +ELLIPSIS

? That added print  at the front, and will display:

None

if homeFolder is in fact bound to None.
