Hi,
Does anyone know how to do a unittest assert for a type?
So If you have a program returning a Decimal, lets say Decimal("1"), and you
want to make sure that what is returned is a Decimal object.
At first I thought of importing Decimal and making my own Decimal("1") and
doing an assertEquals, but this implies I know what the return type is before
getting it.
For new-style classes, you should be able to do
type(result) is Decimal
(since the class is a singleton, 'is' should work).
