I said this elsewhere but I'll repeat it here.
I think the whole string_tests could/should be reorganized (and possibly documented).  There are lot of classes and mixins on several files, and more than once I found tests that were accidentally not run or had other problems.  This got worse after Python 3, where bytes and strings share even less code.  Reorganizing this should make things easier to follow and will probably solve issues like this.  This of course is a bigger project than simply fixing these methods, so it should probably be addressed in a separate issue.
