[Python-Dev] bpo-32972: Add unittest.AsyncioTestCase review (for 3.8?)

2019-02-05 Thread David Shawley
Hi everyone, I added a PR to add a sub-class of unittest.TestCase that makes it possible to write async test methods. I wrote this a few months ago and it is waiting on core review. Is there a core dev that can take up this review? I would love to have this functionality in the core. Lukasz
