[New-bugs-announce] [issue22859] unittest.TestProgram.usageExit no longer invoked

[Robert Collins]

New submission from Robert Collins:

Before the argparse migration usageExit was invoked and could be extended via subclasses, but it no longer is. We could delete it (and document it being no longer accessible) or put some glue in to reinstate it. I think deleting it is fine, as long as we make the argparse parser objects part of the API (so that folk have a reliable place to poke at to change help).
