Hello i would like to take for this
Reacted by Kirill Podoprigora, sobolevn and Tomas R.@MaximGit1 Thank you, please go ahead and ask any questions you have :)
Reacted by MaksimHello, I am currently running "Lib/test/test_metaclass.py".
Running it directly (./python Lib/test/test_metaclass.py) works in the global namespace (main), so module becomes 'main'. This creates a conflict since the module should be called "test.test_metaclass".
To fix this, I decided to do this.
if __name__ == "__main__": __name__ = "test.test_metaclass" # predefined name unittest.main()
I think this is the best solution because I don't change the logic of the tests. How good do you think this solution is?
For regrtest, I would prefer this fix:
diff --git a/Lib/test/test_regrtest.py b/Lib/test/test_regrtest.py index 510c8f69631..7e317d5ab94 100644 --- a/Lib/test/test_regrtest.py +++ b/Lib/test/test_regrtest.py @@ -2546,4 +2546,5 @@ def test_test_result_get_state(self): if __name__ == '__main__': + setup.setup_process() unittest.main()
- added a commit that references this issue
