| Summary: | Use .assertTrue instead of .assertIs(..., True) in the unit testing section of the polls tutorial → Use .assertTrue instead of .assertIs(..., True) in the unit testing section of the polls tutorial. |
Our Python style describes why we prefer assertIs(..., True/False):
Use
assertIs(…, True/False)for testing boolean values, rather thanassertTrue()andassertFalse(), so you can check the actual boolean value, not the truthiness of the expression.
