X-Git-Tag: v2.7.8~153 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1d2ef64df640fd76acad27514e01de00e3d80748;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git #16039/#20118: temporarily skip failing imaplib SSL test. The fix the test is testing prevents a DOS attack, and the failure mode will also prevent the DOS attack, so for now skip the test. Either the test or the code does need fixing, however. --- diff --git a/Lib/test/test_imaplib.py b/Lib/test/test_imaplib.py index 32bfa1139889..1beb39e3863b 100644 --- a/Lib/test/test_imaplib.py +++ b/Lib/test/test_imaplib.py @@ -187,6 +187,9 @@ class ThreadedNetworkedTestsSSL(BaseThreadedNetworkedTests): server_class = SecureTCPServer imap_class = IMAP4_SSL + def test_linetoolong(self): + raise unittest.SkipTest("test is not reliable on 2.7; see issue 20118") + class RemoteIMAPTest(unittest.TestCase): host = 'cyrus.andrew.cmu.edu'
