Hi, What is the best practice for deprecating a class in Twisted and writing tests for it ... and updating existing tests.
I think that the part in which the deprecation code is written, is well understood and documented here http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/core/development/policy/compatibility-policy.html#classes What is missing, is the part talking about how to test these changes and how to update existing tests. The compatibility / deprecation documentation include a section about how to test deprecation code, but the section is brief. http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/core/development/policy/compatibility-policy.html#testing-deprecation-code ---- This email is a follow up of a review done for this ticket https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/8368 Please also check the comments on that ticket. Please leave your feedback and we can try to apply and document it as part of the work for ticket #8368 Regards, -- Adi Roiban
