Out of curiosity, why would a user need to run Python's tests?

If one compiles Python, running the tests is essential.
Some people like to run a test suite to verify an installation.
Sometimes people have problems that might arise from an installation getting messed up.

Whatever is left of 25.5 in the public doc, I think *all* the info should be in the dev guide.
