In the course of trying to fix my fix to bug 588, I kept running into
problems with the testsuite -- it would churn for about thirty minutes,
find a bunch of failures, and then crash, never spitting out any of the
output or tracebacks I'd need to find out what went wrong. It wasn't even
giving me test names, though I guess I would have had that at least if I'd
run with -v.
So I whipped up an implementation of -vv which makes it dump out the error
log after each test (unless it passed), rather than at the very end.
Is this something folks might find interesting?
I also have a patch which adds a -l option to run.py, that makes all that
output go to a file, though I suppose it's just as easy to redirect it with
the shell. Again, any interest?
I always end up running "pfexec make test-verbose" or "pfexec python
run.py -o blah -v".
Yes, yes, and yes. Almost every time I need to debug something that's
failing in the tests, I end up altering
cli/testutils.py:CliTestCase:debug so that it prints out _debug() output
as the test progresses, which is very close to what you're doing with -vv.
The -l is not so interesting to me, but the -vv is definitely.
