Terry J. Reedy added the comment:
The basic question for this issue is whether to segregate gui tests in a
separate directory (idle_test_gui?) and run them with a separate
test_idle_gui.py? or to sprinkle gui test cases throughout the test suite,
perhaps one to each test_idle/text_xxx.py file?
For development, I am pretty sure I would prefer the latter. I have started
test_grep for the 3 methods that can be gui free, but if (when) I do a
gui-requiring test of the dialog itself, I would prefer to have it follow in
the same file.
However, my impression is that each requires('gui') call will result in a skip
message on the test output. (Correct?) So my question is: will non-idle
developers tolerate over 50 skip warnings from Idle tests? or is there a way to
suppress multiple warnings and consolidate them into just one if there is at
least one?
