Nested List, Tuple error

[phgz]

Describe the bug When trying to reproduce an example from https://fidelity.github.io/spock/advanced_features/Advanced-Types#nested-list-tuple-and-dict-types, I get an error saying that Subscripted generics cannot be used with class and instance checks.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. create file as follow:

from typing import List, Tuple

from spock import SpockBuilder
from spock.config import spock


@spock
class TypeConfig:
    param: Tuple[List[str], List[str]] = ([],[])

config = SpockBuilder(TypeConfig).generate()

2. on the command line: python <file>
3. See error

Expected behavior No error. but I get

usage: spocktest.py -c [--config] config1 [config2, config3, ...]



configuration(s):

  TypeConfig
    param    Tuple[List[str], List[str]]     (default: ([], []))

@philipGaudreau Hmmmm this should have been caught by unit tests if something changed in a release... Working on seeing why it isn't covered and seeing what patch is needed.

In the mean time, try using:

@spock
class TypeConfig:
    param: List[List[str]] = [[],[]]

It won't check length like Tuple would but it will give you almost the exact same functionality for the time being until I path this...
