Comment:
With my posted patch, the new error will look like this:
{{{
$ ./runtests.py test_runner/tests.py
Testing against Django installed in '.../django/django' with up to 8
processes
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
RuntimeError: One of the test labels is a path to a file:
'test_runner/tests.py'
Test labels that are paths but not importable as names can only be
directories.
}}}
(By the way, I unchecked "easy" because this wasn't necessarily so easy
given that `is_discoverable()` had to be broken up to get the info needed
for the patch.)
