Michael Foord <mich...@voidspace.org.uk> added the comment:
Tests codify knowledge about the system under test, so it doesn't matter that the test suite has to know how to clear caches. It's specifically a good thing that the test writer knows which caches exist and need clearing, and how to do it. The harder thing mighty be determining what scope to do the clearing (per test, class or module) bit unittest exposes hooks for fixtures at those points for anything that needs doing automatically. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36485> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
