3 Python unit testing framework, based on Erich Gamma's JUnit and Kent Beck's
4 Smalltalk testing framework.
6 This module contains the core framework classes that form the basis of
7 specific test cases and suites (TestCase, TestSuite etc.), and also a
8 text-based utility class for running the tests and reporting the results
