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.
