* Make error message more informative
Replace assertions in error-reporting code with more-informative version that doesn't cause confusion over where and what the error is.
* Additional clarification + get travis to check
* Change from SystemError to TypeError
As suggested in PR comment by @pitrou, changing from SystemError; TypeError appears appropriate.
* NEWS file installation; ACKS addition (will do my best to justify it by additional work)
* reap_children() now sets environment_altered to True to detect bugs
using python3 -m test --fail-env-changed
* Replace bare "except:" with "except OSError:" in reap_children()
* Write an unit test for reap_children() using a timeout of 60
seconds
* Add socketserver.ForkingMixIn.server_close()
bpo-31151: socketserver.ForkingMixIn.server_close() now waits until
all child processes completed to prevent leaking zombie processes.
* Fix test on Windows which doesn't have ForkingMixIn
The current test_child_terminated_in_stopped_state() function test
creates a child process which calls ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0, 0) and
then crash (SIGSEGV). The problem is that calling os.waitpid() in the
parent process is not enough to close the process: the child process
remains alive and so the unit test leaks a child process in a
strange state. Closing the child process requires non-trivial code,
maybe platform specific.
Remove the functional test and replaces it with an unit test which
mocks os.waitpid() using a new _testcapi.W_STOPCODE() function to
test the WIFSTOPPED() path.
Idlelib.calltips.get_argspec now uses inspect.signature instead of inspect.getfullargspec, like help() does. This improves the signature in the call tip in a few different cases, including builtins converted to provide a signature. A message is added if the object is not callable, has an invalid signature, or if it has positional-only parameters.
Patch by Louie Lu.
PtyTests.run_child() now calls os.waitpid() to read the exit status
of the child process to avoid creating zombie process and leaking
processes in the background.
bpo-31072: Add a filter argument to zipapp.create_archive (GH-3021)
* Add an include_file argument to allow callers to decide which files to include
* Document the new argument
bpo-31135: Call the parent destroy() method even if the used
attribute doesn't exist.
The LabeledScale.destroy() method now also explicitly clears label
and scale attributes to help the garbage collector to destroy all
widgets.
* Closes issue bpo-5288: Allow tzinfo objects with sub-minute offsets.
* bpo-5288: Implemented %z formatting of sub-minute offsets.
* bpo-5288: Removed mentions of the whole minute limitation on TZ offsets.
* bpo-5288: Removed one more mention of the whole minute limitation.
Thanks @csabella!
* Fix a formatting error in the docs
* Addressed review comments.
Thanks, @haypo.
The notebook looks a bit better. It will work better with separate page classes. Traversal of widgets by Tab works better. Switching tabs with keys becomes possible. The font sample box works better at large font sizes.
One of the two simulated click tests no longer works. This will be investigated while fixing a bug with the widget itself.
Instance tracers manages pairs consisting of a tk variable and a
callback function. When tracing is turned on, setting the variable
calls the function. Test coverage for the new class is 100%.
Finish resorting the 72 ConfigDialog methods into 7 groups that represent the dialog, action buttons, and font, highlight, keys, general, and extension pages. This will help with continuing to add tests and improve the pages. It will enable splitting ConfigDialog into 6 or 7 more comprehensible classes.
* bpo-31028: Fix test_pydoc when run directly
Fix get_pydoc_link() of test_pydoc to fix "./python
Lib/test/test_pydoc.py": get the absolute path to __file__ to prevent
relative directories.
* Use realpath() instead of abspath()
* In configdialog: Document causal pathways in create_page_general.
Move related functions to follow this. Simplify some attribute names.
* In test_configdialog: Add tests for load and helplist functions.
Coverage for the general tab is now complete, and 63% overall.
