Jessica McKellar added the comment: To summarize (as I understand it) the state of this ticket:
* stop_serving no longer exists anywhere in the code base, so the proximal cause of the bug report from 2009 no longer exists. * the tests in test_xmlrpc currently all pass without issue. * If you tried to create a test in a subclass of BaseServerTestCase which never issues a request to the MyXMLRPCServer instance set up by http_server, it will hang. The reason is that BaseServerTestCase uses setUp and tearDown methods that force the test to coordinate a threading.Event with http_server; if no request is made to the XMLRPC server, the test will hang in tearDown waiting for the server to set the Event flag. I think this ticket could be closed because the proximal issue no longer exists. Alternatively, a docstring could be added to BaseServerTestCase saying tests in subclasses must make at least 1 request else they should live in a different TestCase, or BaseServerTestCase could be refactored to not have this constraint. ---------- nosy: +jesstess _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7100> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
