[New-bugs-announce] [issue16599] unittest: Access test result from tearDown

[anatoly techtonik]

New submission from anatoly techtonik:

A common usage pattern is to prevent clean up in tearDown() if the test failed. However, it requires a hack: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4414234/getting-pythons-unittest-results-in-a-teardown-method. Would be nice to have an officially documented feature.
