Message 413306 - Python tracker (original) (raw)

Remaining TODO list:

• Add a test showing the need for the .uncancel() call in aexit() (currently on line 97). Dropping that line does not cause any tests to fail.
• Ensure the taskgroup tests are run with the C and Python Task implementations.
• Rename tests to have meaningful names.
• I have a few ideas for minor cleanups that I will do later.
• Documentation and What's New entry (in a separate PR, probably).
• Update the docs in a few places to de-prioritize asyncio.gather() and steer people towards TaskGroups.

(We could also add something like Trio's cancel scopes, e.g. based on Andrew Svetlov's async-timeout, which has a mature API. But that should be a separate bpo issue.)
