[Dev] Test script with concurrent threads

[Filipa Martins Soares Abrantes]

Thank you William for your response.

I've executed without the parenthesis, like thread.start_new_thread(
test.runTest, (i,)),  but now I'm getting the following error:


Traceback (innermost last):

  (no code object) at line 0

TypeError: runTest() too many arguments; expected 1 got 2


Any idea?

Thanks,

Filipa
