[New-bugs-announce] [issue22764] object lifetime fragility in unittest tests

[Robert Collins]

New submission from Robert Collins:

test_assertRaises_frames_survival (unittest2.test.test_assertions.Test_Assertions
Depends on refcount behaviour to pass - adding a gc.collect() before the weakref checks is sufficient to fix things on pypy.

test_no_exception_leak (unittest2.test.test_case.Test_TestCase
similarly here adding a juidicious gc.collect solves the issue.
