Which reminds me to ask you how ready for PyPy you think the test convers ion tool is. If I remember correctly the point still holding us was differen t: how to actually run app-level tests. I don't remember where we left the question. In fact, pypy/tool/pypyutest.py looks like the solution (which we hacked in the post-EuroPython days) but I don't remember how complete tha t is.

A bientôt,

Armin.

The tool works great. It converted our whole tree without error. I tried it on the source trees of a few other projects as well, and haven't found any errors in more than a month, I think. (Actually, I commented out the part that does assertRaises, since I don't have a 'raises' yet.) What I think is left to do is to remove the lines that say 'import unittest' and substitute whatever magic you need to put in the file to get the new test framework -- assuming there is any. I don't know how complete pypy/tool/pypyutest.py is, either. Laura
