When I worked on py3 stuff on the DZUG sprint in September, we broke out of that catch-22 by porting zope.testing first, and running its test using <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/discover>, patched[1] to pick up tests via the test_suite() methods. That way we could run the tests of zope.testing under py3 without needing zope.testing itself or zc.buildout to do so, so porting zope.testing could be tackled.
That doesn't seem to work. If I use discover withing setup.py, I get the same problems as using the standard setuptools testrunner. If I have a custom script that I run to run the tests, the tests seem to get stuck in some sort of infinite regression and never end. It's really strange that running tests with setuptools fails. I think the best way forward is to try to figure out why, but I have no idea when or if I'm able to do that. -- Lennart Regebro: Python, Zope, Plone, Grok http://regebro.wordpress.com/ +33 661 58 14 64
