Hello all,
According to the thread that includes http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-June/065727.html there will be some effort in 2.6 to make the tests in Python more consistent. I would like to help with that effort, partly to sneak in some checks for CPython internal tests that should be excluded from Jython, but mainly to understand the future implementation of Python for which the tests provide the only real spec. Which of the current tests is closest to an "ideal" test, so I can use it as a model?
We don't have any labeled as "ideal". Either doctests or unittest tests are considered good form these days. Probably looking at the newer tests would be a good start. -Brett
