[issue37501] Test failures when CPython is built without docstrings

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy  added the comment:

Compiling without docstrings only affects compiled functions.  (Is this option 
unix only, for servers?)  This caused failures in 6 /test test functions.  
Running with -00 only affects python functions.  It causes failure in 19 test 
function on Windows.  For IDLE, it causes many more failures than the 
configuration change. 

__doc__ == '' might have been less of a nuisance than == None, but too late to 
change that glocally now, although it can be a local solution.

Also surprised by the marked dataclasses tests. I don't see anything there that 
requires docstrings. See my review on the PR.

Bit surprised by the test_importlib failure. What has crept into there that 
requires docstrings?

[issue37501] Test failures when CPython is built without docstrings

[Zackery Spytz]

New submission from Zackery Spytz :

test_coroutines, test_dataclasses, test_idle, test_importlib, test_module, and 
test_pydoc fail when CPython is built without docstrings. 

It seems that most of the failures occur simply because the 
test.support.requires_docstrings decorator is missing for some tests.

See also bpo-17041.
