default test method name in unittest framework

[Vyacheslav Maslov]

Hi, all!

i have question related to python's unit testing framework.

Take a look at unittest.TestCase class. The main method which contains all
code related to test case execution have name "run". But in the same time
constructor of unittest.TestCase class have param methodName with default
value "runTest", not "run"! Why? This leads to AttributeError exception if i
do not explicitly set methodName to "run" during TestCase initialization.
