| This directory contains test cases that are known to leak references. |
| The idea is that you can import these modules while in the interpreter |
| and call the leak function repeatedly. This will only be helpful if |
| the interpreter was built in debug mode. If the total ref count |
| doesn't increase, the bug has been fixed and the file should be removed |
| from the repository. |
| |
| Here's an example interpreter session for test_gestalt which still leaks: |
| |
| >>> from test.leakers.test_gestalt import leak |
| [24275 refs] |
| >>> leak() |
| [28936 refs] |
| >>> leak() |
| [28938 refs] |
| >>> leak() |
| [28940 refs] |
| >>> |
