This morning I was looking at test_minidom.py, which contains its own simplistic framework for running a series of regression tests. Maybe another 2.1 task could be selecting a standard unit testing framework; this should mostly be a matter of selecting one, since there are already some candidates. I'm aware of PyUnit (pyunit.sourceforge.net) and the unittest.py from Quixote, and have a vague feeling I'm forgetting one other module. No prizes for guessing which one I'd vote for. :) --amk

Sure, if they provide a clear benefit. I.e. who will want to translate all the existing tests. As well, I have a patch (which, I admit, I haven't been maintaining or pushing much) to allow direct testing of the C API). I have no experience with either of the unit testing frameworks you mention. Will they be able to do that? Presumably yes, using the same hack that I proposed. http://sourceforge.net/patch/?func=detailpatch&patch_id=101162&group_id=5470 Trent -- Trent Mick TrentM@ActiveState.com
