Jerry Seutter posted patch #1678088 yesterday, which converts testoperations over to use unittest and folds the resulting code into testdict. It struck me as a good idea, because a) it gets away from output/-based tests, and b) testoperations tests certain dictionary operations, something that would seem at home in testdict.

Before I commit this, though, I want to ask: is there a reason testoperations is separate? I notice that it's listed in regrtest.py in the "run these tests before everything else" list, which made me think testoperations is on its own for a reason.

svn log shows only one 'recent' checkin from last year. Prior to that there were only a few checkins and they are from 1992 (Guido) - 2001 (Tim). Seems like this file is just a historical relic that can go away.
