This should finally fix #6896. Let's watch the buildbots.

1 """
2 Python unit testing framework, based on Erich Gamma's JUnit and Kent Beck's
3 Smalltalk testing framework.
5 This module contains the core framework classes that form the basis of
6 specific test cases and suites (TestCase, TestSuite etc.), and also a
7 text-based utility class for running the tests and reporting the results
8 (TextTestRunner).
10 Simple usage:
12 import unittest
14 class IntegerArithmenticTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
15 def testAdd(self): ## test method names begin 'test*'
16 self.assertEqual((1 + 2), 3)
17 self.assertEqual(0 + 1, 1)
18 def testMultiply(self):
19 self.assertEqual((0 * 10), 0)
20 self.assertEqual((5 * 8), 40)
22 if __name__ == '__main__':
23 unittest.main()
25 Further information is available in the bundled documentation, and from
