[Python-Dev] PEP 417: Adding mock to the Python Standard Library (original) (raw)

More to the point, I am approving the PEP.

We chatted briefly at the sprint and I just want to emphasize that the external version should not grow new features before the stdlib version has those same features (we don't want users complaining that the stdlib version is no good). Also, if you have some new features you're planning to add, add them now, before inclusion into the stdlib; and likewise, if you have some things you would like to remove, remove them now.

Good luck!

Hello all, At the Python Language Summit adding the "mock" library to the Python Standard Library was discussed and agreed. Here is a very brief PEP covering the decision and rationale. All the best, Michael Foord
