[New-bugs-announce] [issue39613] IsolatedAsyncioTestCase closes default event loop

[Artur Rodrigues]

New submission from Artur Rodrigues <arturhoo at gmail.com>:

This means that subsequent test cases executed within the same application that don't create the event loop will fail. This seems like a behaviour change that wasn't raised on the original PR.

$ cat test.py
from unittest import IsolatedAsyncioTestCase, TestCase, main
import asyncio

class Test1(IsolatedAsyncioTestCase):
    async def test_one(self):
        self.assertTrue(True)

class Test2(TestCase):
    def test_two(self):
        loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
        self.assertTrue(true)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
$ /usr/local/opt/python at 3.8/bin/python3 test.py
.E
