#30468: assertHTMLEqual doesn't account for all ASCII whitespace in a class attribute. ---------------------------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: Jon Dufresne | Owner: nobody Type: Bug | Status: new Component: Testing framework | Version: master Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: Unreviewed | Has patch: 0 Needs documentation: 0 | Needs tests: 0 Patch needs improvement: 0 | Easy pickings: 0 UI/UX: 0 | ---------------------------------------------+------------------------ From https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#classes
> When specified on HTML elements, the class attribute must have a value that is a set of space-separated tokens representing the various classes that the element belongs to. And "space-separated tokens" is defined as: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#set-of-space-separated-tokens > A set of space-separated tokens is a string containing zero or more words (known as tokens) separated by one or more ASCII whitespace, where words consist of any string of one or more characters, none of which are ASCII whitespace. And "ASCII whitespace" is defined as: https://infra.spec.whatwg.org/#ascii-whitespace > ASCII whitespace is U+0009 TAB, U+000A LF, U+000C FF, U+000D CR, or U+0020 SPACE. The current implementation (copied and linked below) only accounts for a single space. Not all consecutive ASCII whitespace. https://github.com/django/django/blob/48235ba807483fe349d2dc66aaeddc0d03f8b0d4/django/test/html.py#L180-L187 {{{ # Special case handling of 'class' attribute, so that comparisons of DOM # instances are not sensitive to ordering of classes. attrs = [ (name, " ".join(sorted(value.split(" ")))) if name == "class" else (name, value) for name, value in attrs ] }}} -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/30468> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
