exception message, or None if no exception is expected); and moved
exception parsing from DocTestRunner to DocTestParser. This is
architecturally cleaner, since it moves all parsing work to
DocTestParser; and it should make it easier for code outside
DocTestRunner (notably debugging code) to properly handle expected
exceptions.
a traceback message. I.e., examples that raise exceptions may no
longer generate pre-exception output. This restores the behavior of
doctest in python 2.3. The ability to check pre-exception output is
being removed because it makes the documentation simpler; and because
there are very few use cases for it.
This patch includes test cases and documentation updates, as well as NEWS file
updates.
This patch also updates the sre modules so that they don't import the string
module, breaking direct circular imports.
happen in 2.3, but nobody noticed it still was getting generated (the
warning was disabled by default). OverflowWarning and
PyExc_OverflowWarning should be removed for 2.5, and left notes all over
saying so.
* Make a pass to eliminate NOPs. Produce code that is more readable,
more compact, and a tiny bit faster. Makes the peepholer more flexible
in the scope of allowable transformations.
* With Guido's okay, bumped up the magic number so that this patch gets
widely exercised before the alpha goes out.

Now joining string subtypes will always return a string.
Formerly, if there were only one item, it was returned unchanged.
- Test filenames sometimes had trailing .pyc or .pyo sufixes
(when module __file__ did).
- Trailing spaces spaces in expected output were dropped.
New default failure format:
- Separation of examples from file info makes examples easier to see
- More vertical separation, improving readability
- Emacs-recognized file info (also closer to Python exception format)
are non-obvious either way because the newline character "is invisible",
but it's still there all the same, and it's easier to explain/predict
if that reality is left alone.
truncate() left the stream position unchanged, which meant the
"truncated" data didn't go away:
>>> io.write('abc')
>>> io.truncate(0)
>>> io.write('xyz')
>>> io.getvalue()
'abcxyz'

test_queue has failed occasionally for years, and there's more than one
cause.
The primary cause in the SF report appears to be that the test driver
really needs entirely different code for thread tests that expect to
raise exceptions than for thread tests that are testing non-exceptional
blocking semantics. So gave them entirely different code, and added a
ton of explanation.
Another cause is that the blocking thread tests relied in several places
on the difference between sleep(.1) and sleep(.2) being long enough for
the trigger thread to do its stuff sot that the blocking thread could make
progress. That's just not reliable on a loaded machine. Boosted the 0.2's
to 10.0's instead, which should be long enough under any non-catastrophic
system conditions. That doesn't make the test take longer to run, the 10.0
is just how long the blocking thread is *willing* to wait for the trigger
thread to do something. But if the Queue module is plain broken, such
tests will indeed take 10 seconds to fail now.
For similar (heavy load) reasons, changed threaded-test termination to
be willing to wait 10 seconds for the signal thread to end too.
appeared at the end of a line. Repaired that. Also noted that it's
too easy to provoke this implementation into requiring exponential
time, and especially when a test fails. I'll replace the implementation
with an always-efficient one later.
error based on decorating with staticmethod too soon for the code to execute.
This meant that if the test didn't pass it just errored out. Now if the test
doesn't pass it leads to a failure instead.
[ 1009560 ] Fix @decorator evaluation order
From the description:
Changes in this patch:
- Change Grammar/Grammar to require
newlines between adjacent decorators.
- Fix order of evaluation of decorators
in the C (compile.c) and python
(Lib/compiler/pycodegen.py) compilers
- Add better order of evaluation check
to test_decorators.py (test_eval_order)
- Update the decorator documentation in
the reference manual (improve description
of evaluation order and update syntax
description)
and the comment:
Used Brett's evaluation order (see
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2004-August/047835.html)
(I'm checking this in for Anthony who was having problems getting SF to
talk to him)
normalize() in Draft 1.06 (9 October 2002):
The normalize operation has been added; it reduces a number to a
canonical form. (This replaces the trim operator, which only
removed trailing fractional zeros.)
version 2.39 of dectest.zip adds some new test files and because
some existing test files were getting skipped).
* Remove two docstrings which cluttered unittest's output.
* Simplify a for-loop with a list comprehension.
path, as normalizing the path may alter the meaning of the path if it contains
symlinks.
Also add tests for infinite symlink loops and parent symlinks that need to be
resolved.
[ 1005248 ] new.code() not cleanly checking its arguments
using the result of new.code() can still destroy the sun, but merely
calling the function shouldn't any more.
I also rewrote the existing tests of new.code() to use vastly less
un-bogus arguments, and added tests for the previous insane behaviours.
visually distinguish the expected output from the comments (use
"##" to mark expected outputs, and "#" to mark comments).
- If the string given to DocTestParser.get_program() is indented, then
strip its indentation. (In particular, find the min indentation of
non-blank lines, and strip that indentation from all lines.)
- Added comments for some regexps
- If the traceback type/message don't match, then still print full
traceback in report_failure (not just the first & last lines)
- Renamed DocTestRunner.__failure_header -> _failure_header
modify option flags for a single example; they do not turn options
on or off.)
- Added "indent" and "options" attributes for Example
- Got rid of add_newlines param to DocTestParser._parse_example (it's
no longer needed; Example's constructor now takes care of it).
- Added some docstrings
