Robert Collins added the comment: I have a package with tests in it. If the tests match test*.py, they are loaded, and load_tests within each one called. But load_tests on the package isn't called.
If I change the pattern supplied by the user to match the package, then the tests within adjacent packages that don't have a load_tests hook but have files called test*.py will no longer match, but the package will match. My preference would be for the special case to just be removed, and load_tests called if it exists: its existence is enough of an opt-in. Failing that, having two distinct fn patterns, one for packages and one for filenames (note the difference: one operates in the python namespace, one the filesystem namespace), would suffice. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16662> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
