Martin Panter added the comment: [padding to avoid UTF-8 error with bug tracker]
See also Issue 22374, where an equivalent of “patch.object” is suggested as an example context manager for the “contextlib” documentation. If we added a plain function or context manager rather than a new TestCase method, it might avoid the worries about bloating the API. Then it could be a generic thing for any kind of testing, and not coupled with the “unittest” framework. About cleanup functions more generally, I think they already tie in well with the TestCase.addCleanup() API. Perhaps it could handle general context managers as well though, by inheriting an ExitStack.enter_context() method or providing an ExitStack attribute. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11664> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
