- 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.

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.
Discussion lives in http://bugs.python.org/issue2578.

documentation. The only significant difference is that round(x) returns a float
to preserve backward-compatibility. See http://bugs.python.org/issue1689.
* Fixed typo in docstring for 'failUnlessAlmostEqual()'
* Removed unnecessary use of 'float()' for time values.
* Removed apparently unnecessary import of unittest. At some point in
the distant past I believe it was necessary otherwise the 'TestCase'
that a module saw was not the same as the 'TestCase' seen within
'unittest', and the user's TestCase subclasses were not recognised as
subclasses of the TestCase seen within unittest. Seems not to be
necessary now.
method (PyUnit issue 563882, thanks to Alexandre Fayolle)
- Ignore non-callable attributes of classes when searching for test
method names (PyUnit issue 769338, thanks to Seth Falcon)
- New assertTrue and assertFalse aliases for comfort of JUnit users
- Automatically discover 'runTest()' test methods (PyUnit issue 469444,
thanks to Roeland Rengelink)
- Dropped Python 1.5.2 compatibility, merged appropriate shortcuts from
Python CVS; should work with Python >= 2.1.
- Removed all references to string module by using string methods instead
equality. Note, there is another flavor that compares to a given
number of significant digits rather than decimal places. If there
is a demand, that could be added at a later date.
