kB (*kilo* byte) unit means 1000 bytes, whereas KiB ("kibibyte")
means 1024 bytes. KB was misused: replace kB or KB with KiB when
appropriate.
Same change for MB and GB which become MiB and GiB.
Change the output of Tools/iobench/iobench.py.
Round also the size of the documentation from 5.5 MB to 5 MiB.
When running the test suite using --use=all / -u all, exclude tzdata
since it makes test_datetime too slow (15-20 min on some buildbots)
which then times out on some buildbots.
-u tzdata must now be enabled explicitly, -u tzdata or -u all,tzdata,
to run all test_datetime tests.
Fix also regrtest command line parser to allow passing -u
extralargefile to run test_zipfile64.
Travis CI: remove -tzdata. Replace -u all,-tzdata,-cpu with -u all,-cpu since tzdata is now excluded from -u all.
* bpo-30764: regrtest: change exit code on failure
* Exit code 2 if failed tests ("bad")
* Exit code 3 if interrupted
* bpo-30764: regrtest: add --fail-env-changed option
If the option is set, mark a test as failed if it alters the
environment, for example if it creates a file without removing it.
* 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.
* regrtest now uses subprocesses when the -j1 command line option
is used: each test file runs in a fresh child process. Before, the -j1 option
was ignored.
* Tools/buildbot/test.bat script now uses -j1 by default to run
each test file in fresh child process.
Slaves (child processes running tests for regrtest -jN) now inherit
--memlimit/-M, --threshold/-t and --nowindows/-n options.
* -M, -t and -n are now supported with -jN
* Factorize code to run tests.
* run_test_in_subprocess() now pass the whole "ns" namespace to the child
process.
Start to split regrtest.py into smaller parts with the creation of
Lib/test/libregrtest/cmdline.py: code to handle the command line, especially
parsing command line arguments. This part of the code is tested by
test_regrtest.
