[IronPython] Unit Test Failures Do Not Include String Arguments Passed to Test s

[Jones, Larry]

The following script
 
import unittest
 

class MyTest(unittest.TestCase):
 
    def testFirst(self):
        self.failUnless(False, 'first')
 
    def testSecond(self):
        self.failIf(False, 'second')
 

def suite():
    theSuite = unittest.makeSuite(MyTest, 'test')
    return theSuite;
 
if __name__ == '__main__':
    unittest.TextTestRunner().run(suite())
    
 
produces the following output in Python 2.4
 
$ python unittesterror.py
F.
======================================================================
FAIL: testFirst (__main__.MyTest)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "unittesterror.py", line 7, in testFirst
    self.failUnless(False, 'first')
AssertionError: first
 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 2 tests in 0.000s
 
FAILED (failures=1)
 
(In particular, it contains the text 'first' supported to the assertion.)
 
Executing under IronPython, the output is:
 
$ /usr/local/bin/ironpython/IronPythonConsole.exe unittesterror.py
F.
======================================================================
FAIL: testFirst (__main__.MyTest)

In particular, the string argument is not present in the output.
 
I have submitted this behavior as a bug.
