  The unittest.TestCase.assertEqual() now displays the differences in lists,
  tuples, dicts and sets on failure.

  Many new handy type and comparison specific assert* methods have been added
  that fail with error messages actually useful for debugging.  Contributed in
  by Google and completed with help from mfoord and GvR at PyCon 2009 sprints.

  Discussion lives in http://bugs.python.org/issue2578.

  Rename the actual method definitions to the official assertFoo names.

  Adds unittests to make sure the old fail* names continue to work now
  and adds a comment that they are pending deprecation.

  Also adds a test to confirm that the plural Equals method variants
  continue to exist even though we're unlikely to deprecate those.

  Better exception messages for unittest assert methods.

  - unittest.assertNotEqual() now uses the inequality operator (!=) instead
    of the equality operator.

  - Default assertTrue and assertFalse messages are now useful.

  - TestCase has a longMessage attribute. This defaults to False, but if set to True
    useful error messages are shown in addition to explicit messages passed to assert methods.

  Issue #5663

  Store the functions in the _type_equality_funcs as wrapped objects that are deep copyable.

  This allows for the deep copying of TestCase instances.

8b7d4aa746 Update documentation for csv module to reflect changes in code,
specifically that it now expects unicode input (and therefore the
paragraph about it not handling unicode is deleted, as well as
the 'how to handle unicode' examples) and that files should
be opened with "newline=''" instead of binary mode.  Also removed
unused BytesIO import from test_csv.

This addresses issue 4847.

ab6f2f6eb6 Fix segfaults when running test_exceptions with coverage tracing, caused by wrongly defining Exception.__context__ as a T_OBJECT structmember which does not set the member to NULL on None assignment, and generally does not do type checks. This could be used to crash the interpreter by setting any object to __context__. The same applies to __cause__. Also document the PyException_* functions. 2009-03-31 04:16:10 +00:00

70d61cedf7 "Port" the fix for issue 1974 from the trunk (2.7). Because Python 3.x does things much better, less changes are necessary.
This also shoves test_email_codecs_rename.py onto test_email_codecs.py even though the test needs to be ported to Python 3.

7f6b4f86e3 Make sure time.strptime only accepts strings (and document the fact like
strftime). Already didn't accept bytes but make the check earlier. This also
lifts the limitation of requiring ASCII.

Closes issue #5236. Thanks Tennessee Leeuwenburg.
