| Title | Test suite not very useful under Python 2.2 |

| Description | Changes made to the PyUnit unit test framework between Python 2.1 and Python 2.2 have reduced the utility of the P4DTI test suite. In particular, running a set of tests only produces a list of single-character results ("." for a pass, "F" for a failure, "E" for an error) while the tests are running, preventing any sort of analysis until the run completes. |
| Analysis | There is a verbosity control (verbosity=2) in PyUnit 1.4.1; modify run_tests.py to use this. It's still not ideal, as backtraces are still hidden until the end. |
| How found | automated_test |
| Evidence | I just know. |
| Observed in | 1.4.2 |
