And here is another interesting experiment: svn+ssh://rege...@svn.zope.org/repos/main/zope.testing/branches/regebro-doctest-patching
It replaces the custom doctest.py with monkey-patches. I will report these to the Python bugtracker as well, although I have no hope of getting them into Python 2.7. But that doesn't matter much. :) Benefits: We don't have to maintain a separate doctest.py, and we get the bugfixes from Python. We haven't merged from Python trunk since 2004, and there are LOADS AND LOADS of bugfixes done on the Python doctest which we don't have. There are three bugfixes and two "features" that we have that I now monkey patch in in this branch. Drawbacks: If you import zope.testing.doctest, *all* your doctests will belong to us, so if you have doctests that expect the bugs, your out of luck. :) Also, I do not monkey-patch in the footer parsing support. It's too big, use Manuel instead if you need that. If noone protests, I'll merge this into my "no testrunner branch", make it support Python 3, and then merge that to trunk, maybe sometime next week. -- Lennart Regebro: http://regebro.wordpress.com/ Python 3 Porting: http://python-incompatibility.googlecode.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 )
