Testing locking behaviour
459
 
-------------------------
460
 
 
461
 
You may want to write tests that particular objects are or aren't locked
462
 
during particular operations: see for example `bug 498409`__.

465
 
 
466
 
The `TestCase` base class registers hooks that record lock actions into 
467
 
``._lock_actions`` in this format::
468
 
 
469
 
  [
470
 
    ('acquired', LockResult(file:///tmp/testbzr-J2pcy2.tmp/.bzr/branch-lockc4au55ppz8wdym11z1aq)),
471
 
    ('released', LockResult(file:///tmp/testbzr-J2pcy2.tmp/.bzr/branch-lockc4au55ppz8wdym11z1aq)),
472
 
    ('acquired', LockResult(file:///tmp/testbzr-J2pcy2.tmp/.bzr/repository/lockyxb3rn4sw1oyx1jzkt45)),
473
 
    ('released', LockResult(file:///tmp/testbzr-J2pcy2.tmp/.bzr/repository/lockyxb3rn4sw1oyx1jzkt45)),
474
 
    ('acquired', LockResult(file:///tmp/testbzr-J2pcy2.tmp/.bzr/branch/lockh8c6t28rcjdkgxtndbje)),
475
 
    ('released', LockResult(file:///tmp/testbzr-J2pcy2.tmp/.bzr/branch/lockh8c6t28rcjdkgxtndbje)),
476
 
    ...
477
 
 
478
 
Alternatively you can register your own hooks to make custom assertions:
479
 
see `TestCase._check_locks` for an example.
