[New-bugs-announce] [issue11049] add tests for test.support

[Brett Cannon]

New submission from Brett Cannon <brett at python.org>:

It seems a little negligent that test.support has no tests. The test.test_support name is available in py3k and backporting issues to 2.7 shouldn't be a problem (rare chance something does happen it can be handling manually). There doesn't seem to be any reason not to make sure that proper unit testing is being done short of just laziness on our parts.

And if this does occur it should probably be listed as an essential test in regrtest.
