| Trac ID | trac#2823 |
| Type | defect |
| Created | 2007-09-06 22:28:12Z |
The double trailing slash causes trial to find a badly named __init__ because of the behavior of filenameToModuleName which results in weird state which triggers an assertion from twisted.python.modules.
Probably trial shouldn't use filenameToModuleName at all, since that function sucks (#2822).

Research direction
Start by reproducing trial path/to/package// and trace how trial calls filenameToModuleName. Read the related behavior in twisted.python.modules, then inspect issue #2822 for context on that function. Done means the double trailing slash no longer reaches the assertion and trial reports or handles the path correctly.
