* place_summary_first copies the regrtest summary to the front of the file
making it easier to scan quickly for problems.
* count_failures gets the actual count of the number of failing tests, not
just a 1 (some failures) or 0 (no failures).
tests which are deemed more important issues, the second those which are
known to have difficult to solve problems and are generally expected to
leak. Hopefully this doesn't break the script...
are zero. This should help reduce the false positives.
The message about references leaking is maintained to provide as much
info as possible rather than simply suppressing the message at the source.
Detect a conflict in the only file that should have outstanding changes
when this script is run. This doesn't matter on the trunk, but does
when run on a branch. Trunk always has the date set to today in
boilerplate.tex. Each time a release is cut with a different date,
a conflict occurs. (We could copy a known good version, but then
we would lose changes to this file.)
copy. This will hopefully catch problems where directories are added
under Lib/ but not to Makefile.pre.in. This breaks out the 2 runs
of the test suite with and without -O which is also nicer.
issues that crop up from time to time, but this change seems to have been
pretty stable (no spurious warnings) for about a week.
Other modules which use threads may require similar use of
threading_setup/threading_cleanup from test_support.
report failures, we'll see.
Skip certain hopeless tests: compiler and logging.
compiler will likely always show varying leaks since it doesn't work
on a defined set of modules unless -u compiler is specified. But that
takes forever (we only run with -u network currently).
logging causes hangs when running with -R.
This should cause few enough spurious warnings to send to python-checkins now.
If a test leaks that is not in the ignore list (LEAKY_TESTS), all tests
which leak will be reported. This includes those in the ignore list.
Hopefully that will prompt someone to fix the flakiness.
