Patch for unittest on trunk. It provides better default failure messages for assertTrue and assertFalse (current is "AssertionError: None"). It also provides a new class attribute for TestCase: longMessage This defaults to False. If set to True, passing in an explicit custom message does *not* override the helpful default failure message in asserts which tell you which objects were involved in the failure. Even if set to True or False in a TestCase then longMessage can still be overridden in individual tests by setting an instance attribute. Needs docs. Could longMessage default to True in 3.1. |
