The "Simple Smalltalk Testing: With Patterns" link from https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/unittest.html is dead. I found 2 "mirrors" but I don't think any of them should replace the broken link.

1. http://testingsoftware.blogspot.com/2007/08/smalltalk-testing-with-patterns.html (ads and spam in comments)

2. http://live.exept.de/doc/online/english/tools/misc/testfram.htm (image link is broken)
