When building Python in some uncommon platforms there are some known tests that will fail. Right now, the test suite has the ability to ignore entire tests using the -x option and to receive a filter file using the --matchfile filter. The problem with the --matchfile option is that it receives a file with patterns to accept and when you want to ignore a couple of tests and subtests, is too cumbersome to lists ALL tests that are not the ones that you want to accept and he problem with -x is that is not easy to ignore just a subtests that fail and the whole test needs to be ignored.
For these reasons, add a new option to allow to ignore a list of test and subtests for these situations.
test_hmac and test_hashlib test built-in hashing implementations and
OpenSSL-based hashing implementations. Add more checks to skip OpenSSL
implementations when a strict crypto policy is active.
Use EVP_DigestInit_ex() instead of EVP_DigestInit() to initialize the
EVP context. The EVP_DigestInit() function clears alls flags and breaks
usedforsecurity flag again.

Make it easier to run and test Python on systems with restrict crypto policies:
* add requires_hashdigest to test.support to check if a hash digest algorithm is available and working
* avoid MD5 in test_hmac
* replace MD5 with SHA256 in test_tarfile
* mark network tests that require MD5 for MD5-based digest auth or CRAM-MD5

There was a discrepancy between the Python and C implementations.
Add singletons ALWAYS_EQ, LARGEST and SMALLEST in test.support
to test mixed type comparison.
Mark some individual tests to skip when --pgo is used. The tests
marked increase the PGO task time significantly and likely don't
help improve optimization of the final executable.
A bug in MSVC UCRT version 17763.615 (which has been fixed in newer versions) is causing test failures in some strptime/strftime tests when the default code page is c65001. This change selectively skips the tests affected by this.
sys._base_executable is now always defined on all platforms, and can be overridden through configuration.
Also adds test.support.PythonSymlink to encapsulate platform-specific logic for symlinking sys.executable
Document reference cycle and resurrected objects issues in
sys.unraisablehook() and threading.excepthook() documentation.
Fix test.support.catch_unraisable_exception(): __exit__() no longer
ignores unraisable exceptions.
Fix test_io test_writer_close_error_on_close(): use a second
catch_unraisable_exception() to catch the BufferedWriter unraisable
exception.
The __exit__() method of test.support.catch_unraisable_exception
context manager now ignores unraisable exception raised when clearing
self.unraisable attribute.
* Copy test_exceptions.test_unraisable() to
test_sys.UnraisableHookTest().
* Use catch_unraisable_exception() in test_coroutines,
test_exceptions, test_generators.
Release build and debug build are now ABI compatible: the Py_DEBUG
define no longer implies Py_TRACE_REFS define which introduces the
only ABI incompatibility.
A new "./configure --with-trace-refs" build option is now required to
get Py_TRACE_REFS define which adds sys.getobjects() function and
PYTHONDUMPREFS environment variable.
Changes:
* Add ./configure --with-trace-refs
* Py_DEBUG no longer implies Py_TRACE_REFS
It checks that a SyntaxWarning is raised when compile specified
statement, that it is raised only once, that it is converted to
a SyntaxError when raised as exception, and that both warning and
exception objects have corresponding attributes.
Depending on system config, a missing candidate compiler name may be
reported as the empty string rather than as None, so adjust the test
helper accordingly.
Rename test.bisect module to test.bisect_cmd to avoid conflict with
bisect module when running directly a test like
"./python Lib/test/test_xmlrpc.py".
Replace time.time() with time.monotonic() in tests to measure time
delta.
test_zipfile64: display progress every minute (60 secs) rather than
every 5 minutes (5*60 seconds).
bpo-34279, bpo-35412: support.run_unittest() no longer raises
TestDidNotRun if a test result contains skipped tests. The
exception is now only raised if no test have been run and no test
have been skipped.
After commit d0f49d2f50, the output of the
test suite is always buffered as the test output needs to be included in
the JUnit file in same cases (as when a test fails). This has the
consequence that printing or using debuggers (like pdb) in the test
suite does not result in a good user experience anymore.
This commit modifies the test suite runner so it only captures the test
output when the JUnit file is requested to fix the regression so prints
and debuggers are usable again.
If buffering=1 is specified for open() in binary mode, it is silently
treated as buffering=-1 (i.e., the default buffer size).
Coupled with the fact that line buffering is always supported in Python 2,
such behavior caused several issues (e.g., bpo-10344, bpo-21332).
Warn that line buffering is not supported if open() is called with
binary mode and buffering=1.
* Add support.MS_WINDOWS: True if Python is running on Microsoft Windows.
* Add support.MACOS: True if Python is running on Apple macOS.
* Replace support.is_android with support.ANDROID
* Replace support.is_jython with support.JYTHON
* Cleanup code to initialize unix_shell
Substract one because listdir() opens internally a file
descriptor to list the content of the /proc/self/fd/ directory.
Add test_support.test_fd_count().
Move also MAXFD code before msvcrt.CrtSetReportMode(), to make sure
that the report mode is always restored on failure.
Historically, -m added the empty string as sys.path
zero, meaning it resolved imports against the current
working directory, the same way -c and the interactive
prompt do.
This changes the sys.path initialisation to add the
*starting* working directory as sys.path[0] instead,
such that changes to the working directory while the
program is running will have no effect on imports
when using the -m switch.
Make test.support.temp_cwd() fork-safe. The context manager test.support.temp_cwd() no longer removes the temporary directory when executing in a process other than the parent it entered from.
If a forked child exits the context manager it won't do the cleanup.
* Fix _PyMem_SetupAllocators("debug"): always restore allocators to
the defaults, rather than only caling _PyMem_SetupDebugHooks().
* Add _PyMem_SetDefaultAllocator() helper to set the "default"
allocator.
* Add _PyMem_GetAllocatorsName(): get the name of the allocators
* main() now uses debug hooks on memory allocators if Py_DEBUG is
defined, rather than calling directly malloc()
* Document default memory allocators in C API documentation
* _Py_InitializeCore() now fails with a fatal user error if
PYTHONMALLOC value is an unknown memory allocator, instead of
failing with a fatal internal error.
* Add new tests on the PYTHONMALLOC environment variable
* Add support.with_pymalloc()
* Add the _testcapi.WITH_PYMALLOC constant and expose it as
support.with_pymalloc().
* sysconfig.get_config_var('WITH_PYMALLOC') doesn't work on Windows, so
replace it with support.with_pymalloc().
* pythoninfo: add _testcapi collector for pymem
The test.support.skip_unless_bind_unix_socket() decorator is used to skip
asyncio tests that fail because the platform lacks a functional bind()
function for unix domain sockets (as it is the case for non root users on the
recent Android versions that run now SELinux in enforcing mode).
* Rename support._match_test() to support.match_test(): make it
public
* Remove support.match_tests global variable. It is replaced with a
new support.set_match_tests() function, so match_test() doesn't
have to check each time if patterns were modified.
* Rewrite match_test(): use different code paths depending on the
kind of patterns for best performances.

test_curses now saves/restores signals. On FreeBSD, the curses module
sets handlers of some signals, but don't restore old handlers when
the module is deinitialized.
support.threading_cleanup() waits for 1 second before emitting a
warning if there are threads running in the background. With this
change, it now emits the warning immediately, to be able to catch
bugs more easily.
test.support.HOST should be "localhost" as it was in the past. See the bpo-29639.
Tests that need the IP address should use HOSTv4 (added) or the existing HOSTv6 constant.
This changes the definition and fixes tests that needed updating to deal with HOST being
the hostname rather than the hardcoded IP address.
This is only the first step in addressing https://bugs.python.org/issue29639.
* reap_children() now sets environment_altered to True to detect bugs
using python3 -m test --fail-env-changed
* Replace bare "except:" with "except OSError:" in reap_children()
* Write an unit test for reap_children() using a timeout of 60
seconds
* bpo-31009: Fix support.fd_count() on Windows
On Windows, test.support.fd_count() now calls
msvcrt.CrtSetReportMode() to not kill the process nor log any error
on stderr on os.dup(fd) if the file descriptor is invalid.
* Fix for release mode
* bpo-26732: fix too many fds in processes started with the "forkserver" method
A child process would inherit as many fds as the number of still-running children.
* Add blurb and test comment
* bpo-30845: reap_children() now logs warnings
* bpo-30845: Enhance test_concurrent_futures cleanup
In setUp() and tearDown() methods of test_concurrent_futures tests,
make sure that tests don't leak threads nor processes. Clear
explicitly the reference to the executor to make it that it's
destroyed (to prevent "dangling threads" warning).
If threading_cleanup() fails to cleanup threads, set a a new
support.environment_altered flag to true, flag uses by save_env which
is used by regrtest to check if a test altered the environment. At
the end, the test file fails with ENV_CHANGED instead of SUCCESS, to
report that it altered the environment.
* regrtest --list-cases now supports --match and --match-file options.
Example: ./python -m test --list-cases -m FileTests test_os
* --list-cases now also sets support.verbose to False to prevent
messages to stdout when loading test modules.
* Add support._match_test() private function.
- new PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE config setting
- coerces legacy C locale to C.UTF-8, C.utf8 or UTF-8 by default
- always uses C.UTF-8 on Android
- uses `surrogateescape` on stdin and stdout in the coercion
target locales
- configure option to disable locale coercion at build time
- configure option to disable C locale warning at build time
* Add a new option taking a filename to get a list of test names to
filter tests.
* support.match_tests becomes a list.
* Modify run_unittest() to accept to match the whole test identifier,
not just a part of a test identifier.
For example, the following command only runs test_default_timeout()
of the BarrierTests class of test_threading:
$ ./python -m test -v test_threading -m test.test_threading.BarrierTests.test_default_timeout
Remove also some empty lines from test_regrtest.py to make flake8
tool happy.
* bpo-30197: Enhance functions swap_attr() and swap_item() in test.support.
They now work when delete replaced attribute or item inside the with
statement. The old value of the attribute or item (or None if it doesn't
exist) now will be assigned to the target of the "as" clause, if there is
one.
* Update docstrings.
On macOS, SuppressCrashReport now redirects /usr/bin/defaults command
stderr into a pipe to not pollute stderr. It fixes a
test_io.test_daemon_threads_shutdown_stderr_deadlock() failure when
the CrashReporter domain doesn't exists. Message logged into stderr:
2017-04-24 16:57:21.432 defaults[41046:2462851]
The domain/default pair of (com.apple.CrashReporter, DialogType) does not exist
Disable faulthandler to run test_SEH() of test_ctypes to prevent the
following log with a traceback:
Windows fatal exception: access violation
Add support.disable_faulthandler() context manager.
The @reap_threads decorator and the threading_cleanup() function of
test.support now log a warning if they fail to clenaup threads.
Fix also the usage of support.threading_cleanup() in
test_urllib2_localnet.
The log may help to debug such other warning seen on the AMD64
FreeBSD CURRENT Non-Debug 3.x buildbot:
Warning -- threading._dangling was modified by test_logging
Windows requires at least the SYSTEMROOT environment variable to start Python.
If run_python_until_end() doesn't copy SYSTEMROOT, the function always fail on
Windows.
