Bug ID: 68847 Summary: Testsuite initialisation fails on Windows when pywin32 isnt installed Product: Pywikibot Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Unprioritized Component: tests Assignee: Pywikipedia-bugs@lists.wikimedia.org Reporter: jayvdb@gmail.com Web browser: --- Mobile Platform: ---

Under python 2.7.8, the default test loader for 'tests' tries to instantiate all files called '*_tests.py', and fails to instantiate the module 'ui_tests' when pywin32 is not installed.
