[New-bugs-announce] [issue14019] Unify tests for str.format and string.Formatter

[Nick Coghlan]

New submission from Nick Coghlan <ncoghlan at gmail.com>:

A couple of issues have arisen where features were added to str.format without similarly being added to string.Formatter.

This is only possible because the test cases for the two are currently almost entirely separate.

A common set of tests defined as (fmt, args, kwargs, output) tuples would help ensure that the implementations remained consistent in the future.
