tests.gdata_tests.docs_test produces errors

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run tests\run_data_tests

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect:
'Running all tests in module tests.gdata_tests.docs_test....OK'

This is what I get for most of the tests.  However, I also get this:

Running all tests in module tests.gdata_tests.docs_test
# ....EE..

What version of the product are you using?

1.3.3

Please provide any additional information below.

I've been trying to find solutions for these errors, but can't seem to
figure it out.  According to the documentation, these should run fine
without producing errors.

When I installed the client libraries, I simply extracted the gdata and
atom modules to the Python25\Lib\site-packages directory.

Apologies if I submitted this problem incorrectly or to the wrong place -
I'm a new/learning developer and Python is my first language.

I got around the 'entry.writersCanInvite.value' error by commenting out the 
three lines 
which contain 'writersCanInvite' in 
'gdata-1.3.3/tests/gdata_tests/docs_test.py'.
After doing that run_data_tests.py completes w/o error.
I had no success in adding a writersCanInvite element to the 
DOCUMENT_LIST_ENTRY in 
'test_data.py'.
