That doesn't work for code that will raise an exception. Also, if you want to both run a command and make sure it's output is correct, then you need to do that twice. That means you are in fact not testing the code that is visible, which defeats the whole purpose of doctests. -- Lennart Regebro: Python, Zope, Plone, Grok http://regebro.wordpress.com/ +33 661 58 14 64 _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
