# One test case for outstanding bugs at the moment:
#
class TestDifflibLongestMatch(unittest.TestCase):
# From Patch #1678339:
# The find_longest_match method in the difflib's SequenceMatcher has a bug.
# The bug is in turn caused by a problem with creating a b2j mapping which
# should contain a list of indices for each of the list elements in b.
# However, when the b2j mapping is being created (this is being done in
# __chain_b method in the SequenceMatcher) the mapping becomes broken. The
# cause of this is that for the frequently used elements the list of indices
# is removed and the element is being enlisted in the populardict mapping.
# The test case tries to match two strings like:
# abbbbbb.... and ...bbbbbbc
# The number of b is equal and the find_longest_match should have returned
# the proper amount. However, in case the number of "b"s is large enough, the
# method reports that the length of the longest common substring is 0. It
# simply can't find it.
# A bug was raised some time ago on this matter. It's ID is 1528074.
