Enabling Future Test Expansion:
This PR lays the groundwork for expanding the test coverage for
IBindCtx,IMoniker, andIRunningObjectTablemethods.Anticipating that directly adding new tests would lead to overgrown and difficult-to-manage test modules, a proactive restructuring was undertaken.
Structured Test Module Organization:
To prevent test module bloat, the testing landscape for COM interfaces has been segmented. Tests for
IBindCtx,IMoniker, andIRunningObjectTableare now separated into dedicated modules (test_bctx.py,test_moniker.py,test_rot.py).This partitioning ensures that as new method-specific tests are introduced, they can be added to their respective, focused modules, maintaining clarity and manageability.
Eliminating Redundancy with Centralized Helpers:
The modularization of tests necessitated the extraction of common
ctypesfunction definitions and COM-related constants.These shared components were previously duplicated or would have become so across the newly split test files.
By centralizing them into
monikers_helper.py, the project avoids "WET" code.
