> This is the situation I am in: coverage.py uses getargspec in a very simple way in its tooling. I support 2.7 and 3.5, so I have to do this: try: getargspec = inspect.getfullargspec except AttributeError: getargspec = inspect.getargspec argspec = getargspec(function) I think it was me who submitted this code to coverage.py.. :) It might be worthwhile to keep it anyways, as getfullargspec uses the signature API, which supports a wider range of callables.
