Also, I'm not sure how a test-case should be constructed for this patch? Can the Python regression test download stuff as part of a test? Or is there some other way to make a testcase for this.
Hmm - perhaps start a server on the local machine at the start of the test, and tear it down at the end? you've then got full control of that server and can make it do whatever you want.
Or replace the socket objects with mock objects?
Thanks for those suggestions. Let's see what I can concoct. Never made (or studied in detail) a python regression test case before so now is a good time :) --Irmen
