Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment: Before testing, let alone documenting, the status quo, I would like to be sure that suppressing the exception is truly the intended behavior. Is there a way to get an annotated listing from git (given which patch, and therefore which person, is responsible for each line)? I will try asking on pydev.
Calling __getattr__ on property failure is a behavior of __getattribute__, not of the property, and I would expect object.__getattribute__ to be tested wherever object is, but I have not found such tests. If we do add a test, the best model in test_desc.py looks like `def test_module_subclasses(self):`. The test class would only need __getattr__ and the faulty property. class Foo(object): def __getattr__(self, name): print(f'Getattr {name}') return True @property def bing(self): print('Property bing') raise AttributeError("blarg") f = Foo() print(f.bing) #prints (which would be the log list in a test) Property bing Getattr bing True ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue8722> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
