It seems like try/tbpl could automatically detect new test files and run
them N times. That way, the developer doesn't have to do it manually, so it
is less "intimidating" and also less likely to be skipped by accident or
forgotten.

Running under rr would be nice, but even without rr this seems like it
would be a nice addition to our testing infrastructure.
