[issue9977] TestCase.assertItemsEqual's description of differences

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:

If I understand correctly, you are requesting that .assertItemsEqual only use the 2nd (multiset comparison) method, so that if one want the first method, one should directly call .assertSequenceEqual(sorted(a), sorted(b)).

This seems reasonable to me, but I do not use the unittest module, and I suspect others want the implicit call.
