TITLE: PROBLEM: Debug print() statements cause doctests to fail Adding debug print(...) statements to code can cause doctests to fail. This is because both use sys.stdout as the output stream.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION: Provide and use a special stream for debug output. In other words, something like >>> import sys >>> sys.stddebug = sys.stderr >>> debug = lambda *argv, **kwargs: print(*argv, file=sys.stddebug, flush=True, >>> **kwargs) Note: Need to use current value of sys.stddebug, so can't use functools.partial. _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
