[Python-Dev] platform module testing

[Benjamin Peterson]

At the moment, the test for the platform module merely calls each
function. I realize that this is a hard module to test well, but are
there some assumptions we can make? For example, if sys.platform is
'java', can it be assumed that java_ver is going to return something
which is not empty. When sys.platform is 'darwin' and the gestalt
module is present, is it reasonable to require that a empty tuple not
be returned?
