    The proposed PR removes the following unittest features:

    • "fail*" and "assert*" aliases of TestCase methods.
    • Broken from start TestCase method assertDictContainsSubset().
    • Ignored TestLoader.loadTestsFromModule() parameter use_load_tests.
    • Old alias _TextTestResult of TextTestResult.

    Most features were deprecated in 3.2, "fail*" methods in 3.1, assertNotRegexpMatches in 3.5. They were kept mostly for compatibility with 2.7 (although some of them were new in Python 3 and not compatible with 2.7).

    Using deprecated assertEquals instead of assertEqual is a common error which we need to fix regularly, so removing deprecated features will not only make the current code clearer, but save as from future errors.

    Per https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/thread/GJTREADEXYAETECE5JDTPYWK4WMTKYGR/ we want to revert this change for 3.11 as it causes adoption pain for little benefit.

    To determine if we should proceed with this in 3.12 or future versions, run a stable Python with this change applied on the test suites of external projects to find regressions. (many will have been addressed by then thanks to the work by RedHat)

    and remember that those are only open source projects. Peoples internal codebases are full of use of these names and this will prevent upgrading until they take the time to address those.

    There are targeted pieces of this change that may make sense to go forward with individually. But it is easier to reason about after a rollback and consider new PRs to move those forward.

    ⚠️ This issue has been updated from 'deferred-blocker' to 'release blocker' as we are past beta1. This issue will block the next release (Python 3.11.0 beta 2). ⚠️

    It is not a blocker at all. The changes were moved from 3.11 to 3.12.

    This commit replaces deprecated failIf calls with assertFalse in the
    test_resourced_test_case.py file. The failIf method was removed in
    Python 3.12 [1-3].

    This PR attempts to add compatibility for older Python versions.
    
    We draw the line at Python versions that predate ssl.SSLContext, though. The
    remaining Python 2.7 documentation doesn't even mention the version at which
    that was introduced.
    
    * Allow access to global __ssl within class definition.
    
    * Remember whether original ssl module has wrap_socket() function.
    
    * Replace a few assertTrue() calls with assert statements.
    
    * In GreenSSLSocket.__new__(), use cls, not self.
    
    * Add 3.12
    
    * Add newer versions
    
    * Warnings don't mean the test should fail
    
    * Fix syntax error
    
    * Style fixes
    
    * Simplify given we only support 3.8+
    
    * Document 3.12 support
