Here's some other bugs which look like they might be good to start on. Many of
these are bug 28171 which is a catch-all bug for new tests in 2.7 that are
broken. You can search the test dirs for these but here's the ones which
looked like they could be easy with a couple more difficult ones mixed in. It
also might be something good to pursue or triage away before 2.7 RTM.
Modules:
http://ironpython.codeplex.com/workitem/28315
test_functools:
Couple of issues in here, first one might be easily fixed by
adding setters which throw the correct exception, 2nd one might be implementing
__reduce_ex__ directly on partial objects or maybe the stack trace will make
the issue obvious.
Test_struct: these look fairly straight forward, and will just be
dealing w/ one module implementation in IronPython.
Runtime libraries:
Test_repeat in test_index.py (in the CPython test repro)
Test_float_to_string in test_types.py
Could be hard or easy but it's certainly easy to investigate -
you just need to look at the string formatter code and see what it turns %g
into.
There's more string formatting failures in here as well which
could be fairly easy
Test_format.py has more string formatting bugs which could be
fairly straight forward
Test_xrange: this one even mentions the function which is broken
Runtime types (these may be a little more difficult):
Test_descr.py and test_collections.py both have some interesting
failures around the type system and descriptors. Some of these may be easier
(e.g. test_classmethods in test_descr.py) than others but might be interesting
to look at for someone more interested into the type system side of things.
