That's cool. As long as the mox* is phased out, the false-positive test results will be fixed. Of course, there's _another_ alternative, which is to retrofit mox3 with the upstream mox fixes (e.g., the bug I cited above exists in mox3). However, the delta between mox3 and upstream mox is pretty huge (I just checked), so effort is probably better spent switching to mock. To that end, I plan on changing the tests I cited above. _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
