* Document that docstrings are verboten for test functions.Guido van Rossum2002-08-221-6/+34
| | | | | Expand the example to show some actual test functions, and a setUp() and tearDown() method.

* Get rid of relative imports in all unittests. Now anything thatBarry Warsaw2002-07-231-26/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | imports e.g. test_support must do so using an absolute package name such as "import test.test_support" or "from test import test_support". This also updates the README in Lib/test, and gets rid of the duplicate data dirctory in Lib/test/data (replaced by Lib/email/test/data). Now Tim and Jack can have at it. :)

| | | | | | | | | | | horridly inefficient hack in regrtest's Compare class, but it's about as clean as can be: regrtest has to set up the Compare instance before importing a test module, and by the time the module *is* imported it's too late to change that decision. The good news is that the more tests we convert to unittest and doctest, the less the inefficiency here matters. Even now there are few tests with large expected-output files (the new cost here is a Python-level call per .write() when there's an expected- output file).
* When Tim untabified this file, his editor accidentally assumed 4-spaceGuido van Rossum2001-05-231-4/+4

* Remove test_doctest's expected-output file.Tim Peters2001-05-231-27/+97
| | | | | | Change test_doctest and test_difflib to pass regrtest's notion of verbosity on to doctest. Add explanation for a dozen "new" things to test/README.

* Rehabilitate autotest.py.Tim Peters2000-08-231-0/+36
| | | | | In README: Write up (Guido's) rules for intra-test imports; warn against asserts; document test_support.use_large_resources.
* Add TestSkipped as another interesting item defined by test_support.Fred Drake2000-08-211-0/+4

* Raise 'TestSkipped' (from the test_support) module rather than 'ImportError'Thomas Wouters2000-08-041-1/+2
| | | | | to signify a test that should be marked as 'skipped' rather than 'failed'. Also 'document' it, in README.
