Package: zope-testcase
Version: 0.8.6-1
Severity: wishlist
This is not really a zope-testcase bug but it is reported here so
other people using it can find an explanation why this happens.
The problem is python's urllib will use http_proxy, but ignores
no_proxy. The tests use urllib to access "http://localhost:xxxx/*";. If
you have http_proxy defined to point to a remote proxy and no_proxy to
bypass proxies for "localhost", urllib will still use the proxy,
causing the test to fail.
This will affect all tests using urllib, including tests you write
yourself. The workaround is to always specify "proxies={}" when
calling urllib.urlopen().
I think I remember reporting this bug upstream against python...

This bug was fixed in Python 2.6. python-defaults points to Python 2.6
since 2.6.5-1 so I'm closing with this version.
