> For one thing, I think resources could be implemented in terms of skips
While working on #17333 I noticed a related problem. Most of the tests in
test_imaplib are skipped if the 'network' resource is not specified. The test
contains the following lines to enable those tests when the file is executed
directly:
if __name__ == "__main__":
support.use_resources = ['network']
unittest.main()
but this clearly doesn't work while using unittest discovery, so those tests
are skipped.
Implementing resources as skips makes sense, but we might also need a way to
specify what resources are needed that works with unittest discovery. Running
these tests only when the test file is executed directly or through `regrtest
-u` is also an option.
