- unittest.assertNotEqual() now uses the inequality operator (!=) instead
of the equality operator.
- Default assertTrue and assertFalse messages are now useful.
- TestCase has a longMessage attribute. This defaults to False, but if set to True
useful error messages are shown in addition to explicit messages passed to assert methods.
Issue #5663
Adds unittests to make sure the old fail* names continue to work now
and adds a comment that they are pending deprecation.
Also adds a test to confirm that the plural Equals method variants
continue to exist even though we're unlikely to deprecate those.

return the error message produced by importlib, so that if an import
in the package whose import is being wrapped is what failed the skip
message will contain the name of that module instead of the name of the
wrapped module. Also fixed formatting of some previous comments.
tuples, dicts and sets on failure.
Many new handy type and comparison specific assert* methods have been added
that fail with error messages actually useful for debugging. Contributed in
by Google and completed with help from mfoord and GvR at PyCon 2009 sprints.

Re http://bugs.python.org/issue4315
The symbol table used the same name dictionaries to recursively
analyze each of its child blocks, even though the dictionaries are
modified during analysis. The fix is to create new temporary
dictionaries via the analyze_child_block(). The only information that
needs to propagate back up is the names of the free variables.
Add more comments and break out a helper function. This code doesn't
get any easier to understand when you only look at it once a year.
tests that expect to be skipped if imports fail or functions don't
exist to use import_function and import_module. The ultimate goal is
to change regrtest to not skip automatically on ImportError. Checking
in now to make sure the buldbots don't show any errors on platforms
I can't direct test on.
This adds a --randseed option, and makes regrtest.py -r indicate what random seed it's using so that that value can later be fed back to --randseed. This option is useful for tracking down test order-related issues found by make buildbottest, for example.
