Description

Feature or enhancement

Proposal:

The Python test suite has around 166 files and sub-directories where the name is not clearly associated to a test. For example, it's not obvious to me which test uses talos-2019-0758.pem or coding20731.py.

When possible, I propose to move these files into sub-directories related to their test. Example:

  • create Lib/test/test_module/ sub-directory
  • move Lib/test/test_module.py to Lib/test/test_module/__init__.py
  • move good_getattr.py and bad_getattr*.py scripts to Lib/test/test_module/

Well, I created PR #108293 for this specific example.
