why this error raised?? i'm hard to find the reason

Sorry, but I cannot reproduce this issue. However, I did not test with Python 3.6.8 specifically, but before I undertake the hassle to setup this specific version on my system I would like to exclude other possible causes (because I somewhat doubt that Python 3.6.8 is the cause). If I run

from pytypes import typechecked
from typing import List, Dict

@typechecked
def func(x: List[Dict[str, str]]):
	pass

x = [
  {
    'a': 'a'
  }
]

func(x=7)

that works as expected. What do you mean by "unittest"? What tests do you refer to? Anyway, please post an entire runnable code snippet you think that fails, e.g. similar to that I posted above. If there's more to it than just running python file.py, please describe how to run it such that it fails. What version of pytypes are you using?
