+Subject: [PATCH] Treat methodName="runTest" similar to unittest.TestCase
+
+pytest 8.2 relies on a feature of `unittest.TestCase` where the
+initialization of it with the default `methodName="runTest"` is treated
+specially, allowing it to insantiate even without `runTest` method
+actually existing.
+
+See under "Changed in Python 3.2" in unittest.TestCase docs
+
+This fixes the error with pytest 8.2:
+  AttributeError: 'TestUtil' object has no attribute 'runTest'. Did you mean: 'subTest'?
+
+Fixes: https://github.com/testing-cabal/testtools/issues/372
+ref: https://docs.python.org/3/library/unittest.html#unittest.TestCase
