| The function `register` of the `webbrowser` module was updated a little while back to use the newish keyword-only argument syntax; however, the function `_synthesize` (also in `webbrowser`) is still using the outdated positional arguments only calling convention; leading a pair of tests in `Lib/tests/test_webbrowser.py` to fail. I've issued a PR that fixes the function call to use the more modern calling convention. |

| Is it possible to write a test? |

| What would a new test be testing? I only found this behaviour because two existing tests were failing (with the PR they pass, of course). I'm happy to write a test, I'm just not sure what the test should be testing that the existing tests don't already test. |

| These tests are not failing on our buildbots and developer's computers. Seems they are failing only in special environment. This path of execution is not tested in more common environments, therefore possible regression couldn't be caught until somebody run tests in similar special environment. New test should test this path of execution in common environments. |

| Ok I understand what you mean. I think the only conditions for test failure are (A) BROWSERissetand(B)BROWSER is set and (B) BROWSERissetand(B)BROWSER is set to an actual executable that should be caught by ``register_standard_browsers`` prior to execution reaching the last if clause of ``register_standard_browsers`` (``if 'BROWSER' in os.environ:``) - those two conditions should be sufficient for execution to reach the offending line of code. I'll see if I can cook up a test for that. I think the right way to do this is to monkeypatch ``os.environ`` and ``shutil.which``, am I right? |

| This would be not easy. Since the BROWSER environment variable should be patched before the first use the webbrowser module, the test should import webbrowser in a separate process (you can use the test.support.script_helper.assert_python_ok() helper). _synthesize() is used in two places with different arguments: in register_standard_browsers() and in get(). |

| bpo-33693 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. It seems to be a regression caused by bpo-24241. |

| I'm surprised that test_webbrowser pass on my Fedora 28, but it fails for Greg Walters: https://bugs.python.org/issue33693#msg318163 Some tests are skipped depending on the OS? Maybe we should mock more things, or something else, to get a better code coverage. I ran PR 2689 new test without the fix on webbrowser.py: the test doesn't fail. So this PR is not enough to detect bpo-33693. |

| PR 7267 is based on PR 2689, but adds two tests that cover both cases of using webbrowser._synthesize(). |
