1 # test_pickle dumps and loads pickles via pickle.py.
2 # test_cpickle does the same, but via the cPickle module.
3 # This test covers the other two cases, making pickles with one module and
4 # loading them via the other. It also tests backwards compatibility with
5 # previous version of Python by bouncing pickled objects through Python 2.4
6 # and Python 2.5 running this file.
