[Python-Dev] Whole bunch of test failures on OSX

Mon Apr 3 00:59:44 CEST 2006

I'm not sure this is going to be all that helpful. If there's more I can do
to help track down these problems, let me know.
Last night I ran
 make test EXTRATESTOPTS='-R :: -uall -r'
on my Mac laptop after a fresh svn up. I wasn't ready for how long that
would run!
I got plenty of test failures:
 285 tests OK.
 12 tests failed:
 test_codecencodings_cn test_codecencodings_kr
 test_codecencodings_tw test_codecmaps_cn test_codecmaps_hk
 test_codecmaps_jp test_codecmaps_tw test_decimal test_difflib
 test_logging test_optparse test_warnings
 15 tests skipped:
 test_al test_cd test_cl test_dl test_gdbm test_gl test_imgfile
 test_linuxaudiodev test_locale test_nis test_ossaudiodev
 test_pep277 test_sunaudiodev test_winreg test_winsound
 Those skips are all expected on darwin.
The test_codecencodings_tw failure looks like this:
 File "/Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_multibytecodec_support.py", line 88, in test_customreplace_encode
 "test.xmlcharnamereplace")[0], sout)
 File "/Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_multibytecodec_support.py", line 74, in xmlcharnamereplace
 if ord(c) in codepoint2name:
 File "/Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_multibytecodec_support.py", line 260, in ord
 return _ord(c)
 File "/Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_multibytecodec_support.py", line 260, in ord
 return _ord(c)
 File "/Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_multibytecodec_support.py", line 260, in ord
 return _ord(c)
 ... many more at the same line ...
with "maximum recursion depth exceeded" at the bottom. Similar problem in
test_codecmaps_hk except the recursion was in _unichr():
 File "/Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_multibytecodec_support.py", line 299, in test_mapping_file
 unich = unichrs(data[1])
 File "/Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_multibytecodec_support.py", line 275, in <lambda>
 unichrs = lambda s: u''.join(map(unichr, map(eval, s.split('+'))))
 File "/Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_multibytecodec_support.py", line 253, in unichr
 return _unichr(v)
 File "/Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_multibytecodec_support.py", line 253, in unichr
 return _unichr(v)
 File "/Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_multibytecodec_support.py", line 253, in unichr
 return _unichr(v)
 ...
The other codec-related failures looked the same to my casual eye.
The test_difflib error was an assertion failure involving a big-ass chunk of
HTML:
 test test_difflib failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_difflib.py", line 145, in test_html_diff

The test_optparse failure:
 test test_optparse failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_optparse.py", line 571, in test_float_default
 self.assertHelp(self.parser, expected_help)
 File "/Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_optparse.py", line 176, in assertHelp
 actual_help + '"\n')
 AssertionError: help text failure; expected:
 "usage: test [options]

 "; got:

 "
Test_logging crashed:
 test test_logging crashed -- <class 'exceptions.KeyError'>: <logging.StreamHandler instance at 0x2088478>
And though it didn't list test_bsddb3 as a failure, it got a bunch of
DBLockDeadlockError exceptions. Here are a couple examples:
 test_bsddb3
 Exception in thread reader 0:
 Traceback (most recent call last):

 ...
For test_decimal it printed:
 test test_decimal failed -- errors occurred; run in verbose mode for details
but when I ran test_decimal manually it ran fine.
Same thing for test_warnings:
 test test_warnings failed -- errors occurred in test.test_warnings.TestModule
When I ran it manually it passed.
