New submission from STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com>: I would be nice to add a timeout option to regrtest.py to be able to dump the traceback after TIMEOUT seconds and also exit the process. It would help debugging timeout issues (e.g. test_multiprocessing ), but also protect buildbots against evil (long) tests.
Attached patch implements this feature. ---------- components: Tests files: regrtest_timeout.patch keywords: buildbot, patch messages: 132643 nosy: haypo priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Add a --timeout option to regrtest.py using the faulthandler module versions: Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file21488/regrtest_timeout.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11727> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
