I agree that tests should not depend on each other, but sometimes it's still useful to have the tests run in a certain order for reporting purposes. If you're doing requirements tracking, it's nice to have the tests execute in the same order as the requirements are listed. It makes interpreting the output easier. Sure, you could give the test cases names like "test_fr17.3a" and write your own getTestCaseNames(), but just putting them into the file in the order you want them to run is easier. And making things easy is what this is all about. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
