- don't allow setting options to non-string values; raise TypeError
when the value is set, instead of raising an arbitrary exception
later (such as when string interpolation is performed)
- add tests, documentation
(closes SF bug #810843)
- ensure that option names in interpolations are handled by
self.optionxform in the same way that other references to option
names
- add tests, documentation
(closes SF bug #857881, patch #865455)
and test_support.run_classtests() into run_unittest()
and use it wherever possible.
Also don't use "from test.test_support import ...", but
"from test import test_support" in a few spots.
From SF patch #662807.
imports of test modules now import from the test package. Other
related oddities are also fixed (like DeprecationWarning filters that
weren't specifying the full import part, etc.). Also did a general
code cleanup to remove all "from test.test_support import *"'s. Other
from...import *'s weren't changed.
GNOME-style internationalized options can be parsed using ConfigParser
(SF bug #131635).
Converted the tests to use test_support.verify() instead of output
comparison to work.
