New submission from STINNER Victor: Attached PR changes regrtest to reseed the random RNG before each test file. Use also more entropy for the seed: 2**32 (32 bits) rather than 10_000_000 (24 bits).
The change should avoid random failure of test_tools when hunting reference leaks: see bpo-31174. Maybe it will also reduce false positive when hunting memory leaks, like bpo-31217. ---------- components: Tests messages: 300438 nosy: haypo priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: regrtest: reseed random with the same seed before running a test file versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.6, Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue31227> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
