Michiel,
I've noticed that for print-and-compare tests we can get unexpected
errors from the line:
module = __import__(name)
For example, if there is an IOError in test_SeqIO_online.py this does
not get caught - we only try to catch a
MissingExternalDependencyError. Perhaps we should also catch any
generic exception and report that test as a failure. Otherwise, the
run_test.py file terminates prematurely.
Would you like to look into this, or should I?
Peter
