[New-bugs-announce] [issue44288] unittest: _is_relevant_tb_level() fails because tb.tb_frame.f_globals=None

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org>:

Sometimes, when a test fails in the main branch, unittest fails with the following error:

...
  File "C:\vstinner\python\main\lib\unittest\result.py", line 205, in _is_relevant_tb_level
    return '__unittest' in tb.tb_frame.f_globals
TypeError: argument of type 'NoneType' is not iterable

I only see this error in the main branch, so I suspect that it's a recent change.

Mark, Guido: can it be related to the recent optimization work?
