Serhiy Storchaka 1d33d53780 gh-106033: Get rid of new occurrences of PyDict_GetItem and PyObject_HasAttr (GH-106034) These functions are broken by design because they discard any exceptions raised inside, including MemoryError and KeyboardInterrupt. They should not be used in new code.		2023-06-23 20:10:32 +03:00

README.txt

Tests in this directory are compiled into the _testcapi extension.
The main file for the extension is Modules/_testcapimodule.c, which
calls `_PyTestCapi_Init_*` from these functions.

General guideline when writing test code for C API.
* Use Argument Clinic to minimise the amount of boilerplate code.
* Add a newline between the argument spec and the docstring.
* If a test description is needed, make sure the added docstring clearly and succinctly describes purpose of the function.
* DRY, use the clone feature of Argument Clinic.
* Try to avoid adding new interned strings; reuse existing parameter names if possible. Use the `as` feature of Argument Clinic to override the C variable name, if needed.
