The Python unit tests for FilterableListForm currently patch the
builtins.super
function which can break unit tests when run in a reverse or unpredictable order.This PR updates those tests to avoid the need to patch super while still continuing to test the same functionality. I also removed an unused
set_field_html_name
method whose only use was removed in 2019 in 934a397.How to test this PR
All tests continue to pass with the same coverage (actually slightly increased due to removal of unused code).
Notes and todos
This is a followup to #8461 which removed the only other patching of
builtins.super
in the codebase.Checklist
