Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment:
I am rather sure that test.support is going to remain private. So the concrete proposal should be to move them into the unittest package somewhere, perhaps in a new unittest.utils/support/helpers module, for battle-tested helper functions. I strongly suggest that you make such a proposal on the python-ideas list, both to get support from users and also from a coredev that might review and merge if approved. A new module should require a PEP, which should include some criteria for what might go into such a module. What some coredevs will rightly fear is an avalanche of proposals to various person's favorite thing from test.support, or even elsewhere. Why these 3 things and not other things or even everything? Take a look at PEP 1 for what should be covered even in a pre-PEP. ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40557> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
