try to fix for windows

2010-01-15T02:26:07+00:00

use more robust quoting

fix test_popen when the path to python has spaces #7671

2010-01-10T20:42:03+00:00

Add basic tests for the return value of os.popen().close().

According to #6358, python 3.0 has a different implementation that behaves differently.

Port test_popen.py to unittest.

2007-01-24T00:42:19+00:00

Add new utility function, reap_children(), to test_support. This should

2006-06-29T04:10:08+00:00

be called at the end of each test that spawns children (perhaps it
should be called from regrtest instead?).  This will hopefully prevent
some of the unexplained failures in the buildbots (hppa and alpha)
during tests that spawn children.  The problems were not reproducible.
There were many zombies that remained at the end of several tests.
In the worst case, this shouldn't cause any more problems,
though it may not help either.  Time will tell.

Don't quote the path to Python unless the path contains an embedded space.

Quoting the path doesn't work on Win2K (cmd.exe) regardless, this is just
a hack to let the test pass again on Win2K (so long as Python isn't
installed in a path that does contain an embedded space).  On Win2K it
looks like we'd also have to add a second pair of double quotes, around
the entire command line.

sys.executable can contain spaces, cater for this when passing it to

os.popen(). Fixes #692222.

Get rid of relative imports in all unittests. Now anything that

2002-07-23T19:04:11+00:00

imports e.g. test_support must do so using an absolute package name
such as "import test.test_support" or "from test import test_support".

This also updates the README in Lib/test, and gets rid of the
duplicate data dirctory in Lib/test/data (replaced by
Lib/email/test/data).

Now Tim and Jack can have at it. :)
