We had a unit test that depended on the specific version of patch(1)

installed. Newer versions of patch will accept a diff that contains no

hunks, whereas older versions will fail with a message saying that the

input contained only garbage.


We now have unit tests that check the correct behaviour happens in both

cases by replacing our call to patch(1).

In your description, "replacing out call to patch(1)" doesn't sound quite right, grammatically.

Should this be a test assertion rather than using the assert keyword?
