Guido van Rossum added the comment: It's trivial to add to a single test or even a single TestCase subclass, yes. The use case is more that you have a ton of tests and you suspect there's a problem due to GC. Being able to call gc.collect() after each test through the flip of a flag would be useful.
But I agree it's iffy whether this belongs in the unittest package; we could add it to the CPython run_tests.py script, or you could request this as a feature from py.test. If someone wants to add this to run_tests.py I think this issue would be the place to review the patch. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17908> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
