The attached patch adds tests for antigravity.

[birkenfeld]

Are you serious?

[tiran]

Ezio is as serious as the antigravity module. *g*

[brettcannon]

It's actually a nice example of using unittest.mock. =)

[voidspace]

What happens if test_geohash runs first? It looks like test_antigravity will only pass if it is run first. You could remove the order dependence by ensuring antigravity is not in sys.modules. sys.modules.pop('antigravity', None)

[cjerdonek]

Oh, this explains it. I was wondering why my browser was opening xkcd whenever I tried running doctest against all modules in the library.

[pitrou]

I'm not sure why we would test undocumented jokes...
Do other Python implementations have to provide them too?

[RamchandraApte]

@antoine Aw.. no funny bone in you..

[merwok]

Agreed with Antoine.

[ezio-melotti]

The test could be made CPython-specific, but if you think it's not necessary I'll just close the issue. The main reason I wrote this was to experiment a bit with unittest.mock :)
