* Move to a static argparse.Namespace subclass
* Roughly annotate runtest.py
* Refactor libregrtest to use lossless test result objects
* Only re-run test methods that match names of previously failing test methods
* Adopt tests to cover test method name matching

When building Python in some uncommon platforms there are some known tests that will fail. Right now, the test suite has the ability to ignore entire tests using the -x option and to receive a filter file using the --matchfile filter. The problem with the --matchfile option is that it receives a file with patterns to accept and when you want to ignore a couple of tests and subtests, is too cumbersome to lists ALL tests that are not the ones that you want to accept and he problem with -x is that is not easy to ignore just a subtests that fail and the whole test needs to be ignored.
For these reasons, add a new option to allow to ignore a list of test and subtests for these situations.
* Add log() method: add timestamp and load average prefixes
to main messages.
* WindowsLoadTracker:
* LOAD_FACTOR_1 is now computed using SAMPLING_INTERVAL
* Initialize the load to the arithmetic mean of the first 5 values
of the Processor Queue Length value (so over 5 seconds), rather
than 0.0.
* Handle BrokenPipeError and when typeperf exit.
* format_duration(1.5) now returns '1.5 sec', rather than
'1 sec 500 ms'
* Windows: Fix counter name in WindowsLoadTracker. Counter names are
localized: use the registry to get the counter name. Original
change written by Lorenz Mende.
* Regrtest.main() now ensures that the Windows load tracker is also
killed if an exception is raised
* TestWorkerProcess now ensures that worker processes are no longer
running before exiting: kill also worker processes when an
exception is raised.
* Enhance regrtest messages and warnings: include test name,
duration, add a worker identifier, etc.
* Rename MultiprocessRunner to TestWorkerProcess
* Use print_warning() to display warnings.

Mark some individual tests to skip when --pgo is used. The tests
marked increase the PGO task time significantly and likely don't
help improve optimization of the final executable.
Reduce the number of unit tests run for the PGO generation task. This
speeds up the task by a factor of about 15x. Running the full unit test
suite is slow. This change may result in a slightly less optimized build
since not as many code branches will be executed. If you are willing to
wait for the much slower build, the old behavior can be restored using
'./configure [..] PROFILE_TASK="-m test --pgo-extended"'. We make no
guarantees as to which PGO task set produces a faster build. Users who
care should run their own relevant benchmarks as results can depend on
the environment, workload, and compiler tool chain.
* regrtest: Add --cleanup option to remove "test_python_*" directories
of previous failed test jobs.
* Add "make cleantest" to run "python3 -m test --cleanup".
When using multiprocessing (-jN option), worker processes now create
their temporary directory inside the temporary directory of the
main process. So the main process is able to remove temporary
directories of worker processes even if they crash or when they are
killed by regrtest on KeyboardInterrupt (CTRL+c).
Rework also how multiprocessing arguments are parsed in main.py.
"python3 -m test -jN ..." now continues the execution of next tests
when a worker process crash (CHILD_ERROR state). Previously, the test
suite stopped immediately. Use --failfast to stop at the first error.
Moreover, --forever now also implies --failfast.
regrtest now always detects uncollectable objects. Previously, the
check was only enabled by --findleaks. The check now also works with
-jN/--multiprocess N.
--findleaks becomes a deprecated alias to --fail-env-changed.
Rewrite run_tests_multiprocess() function as a new MultiprocessRunner
class with multiple methods to better report errors and stop
immediately when needed.
Changes:
* Worker processes are now killed immediately if tests are
interrupted or if a test does crash (CHILD_ERROR): worker
processes are killed.
* Rewrite how errors in a worker thread are reported to
the main thread. No longer ignore BaseException or parsing errors
silently.
* Remove 'finished' variable: use worker.is_alive() instead
* Always compute omitted tests. Add Regrtest.get_executed() method.
* Add TestResult and MultiprocessResult types to ensure that results
always have the same fields.
* runtest() now handles KeyboardInterrupt
* accumulate_result() and format_test_result() now takes a TestResult
* cleanup_test_droppings() is now called by runtest() and mark the
test as ENV_CHANGED if the test leaks support.TESTFN file.
* runtest() now includes code "around" the test in the test timing
* Add print_warning() in test.libregrtest.utils to standardize how
libregrtest logs warnings to ease parsing the test output.
* support.unload() is now called with abstest rather than test_name
* Rename 'test' variable/parameter to 'test_name'
* dash_R(): remove unused the_module parameter
* Remove unused imports
While Windows exposes the system processor queue length, the raw value
used for load calculations on Unix systems, it does not provide an API
to access the averaged value. Hence to calculate the load we must track
and average it ourselves. We can't use multiprocessing or a thread to
read it in the background while the tests run since using those would
conflict with test_multiprocessing and test_xxsubprocess.
Thus, we use Window's asynchronous IO API to run the tracker in the
background with it sampling at the correct rate. When we wish to access
the load we check to see if there's new data on the stream, if there is,
we update our load values.
Fix bug in `Lib/test/libregrtest/runtest.py` that makes running tests an extra time than the specified number of runs.
Add check for invalid --huntrleaks/-R parameters.
If tests are re-run, use "xxx then yyy" result format (ex: "FAILURE
then SUCCESS") to show that some failing tests have been re-run.
Add also test_regrtest.test_rerun_fail() test.
* "running:" progress: Format number of seconds as hours and minutes
* format_duration(): count also minutes as hours
* Create Lib/test/libregrtest/utils.py
* No longer clear filters, like --match, to re-run failed tests in
verbose mode (-w option).
* Tests result: always indicate if tests have been interrupted.
* Enhance tests summary
* Rename support._match_test() to support.match_test(): make it
public
* Remove support.match_tests global variable. It is replaced with a
new support.set_match_tests() function, so match_test() doesn't
have to check each time if patterns were modified.
* Rewrite match_test(): use different code paths depending on the
kind of patterns for best performances.

* Add Lib/test/pythoninfo.py: script collecting various informations
about Python to help debugging test failures.
* regrtest: remove sys.hash_info and sys.flags from header.
* Travis CI, Appveyor: run pythoninfo before tests
* bpo-30764: regrtest: change exit code on failure
* Exit code 2 if failed tests ("bad")
* Exit code 3 if interrupted
* bpo-30764: regrtest: add --fail-env-changed option
If the option is set, mark a test as failed if it alters the
environment, for example if it creates a file without removing it.
* regrtest --list-cases now supports --match and --match-file options.
Example: ./python -m test --list-cases -m FileTests test_os
* --list-cases now also sets support.verbose to False to prevent
messages to stdout when loading test modules.
* Add support._match_test() private function.
Use a build/ directory in the build directory, not in the source
directory, since the source directory may be read-only and must not
be modified.
Fallback on the source directory if the build directory is not
available (missing "abs_builddir" sysconfig variable).
Issue #29362: Catch a crash of a worker process as a normal failure and
continue to run next tests. It allows to get the usual test summary: single
line result (OK/FAIL), total duration, etc.
It's sometimes hard to check quickly if tests succeeded, failed or something
bad happened. I added a final "Result: xxx" line which summarizes all outputs
into a single line, written at the end (it should always be the last line of
the output).
* Rename libregrtest.main_in_temp_cwd() to libregrtest.main()
* Add regrtest.main_in_temp_cwd() alias to libregrtest.main()
* Move old main_in_temp_cwd() code into libregrtest.Regrtest.main()
* Update multiple scripts to call libregrtest.main()
* Fix accumulate_result(): don't use time on interrupted and failed test
* Add unit test for interrupted test
* Add unit test on --slow with interrupted test, with and without
multiprocessing
* Fix "-m test --forever": replace _test_forever() with self._test_forever()
* Add unit test for --forever
* Add unit test for a failing test
* Fix also some pyflakes warnings in libregrtest
* Remove runtest_ns(): pass directly ns to runtest().
* Create also Regrtest.rerun_failed_tests() method.
* Inline again Regrtest.run_test(): it's no more justified to have a method
Slaves (child processes running tests for regrtest -jN) now inherit
--memlimit/-M, --threshold/-t and --nowindows/-n options.
* -M, -t and -n are now supported with -jN
* Factorize code to run tests.
* run_test_in_subprocess() now pass the whole "ns" namespace to the child
process.
Move the code to run tests in multiple processes using threading and subprocess
to a new submodule.
Move also slave_runner() (renamed to run_tests_slave()) and
run_test_in_subprocess() (renamed to run_tests_in_subprocess()) there.
with attributes and methods.
The --threshold command line option is now ignored if the gc module is missing.
* Convert main() variables to Regrtest attributes, document some attributes
* Convert accumulate_result() function to a method
* Create setup_python() function and setup_regrtest() method.
* Import gc at top level
* Move resource.setrlimit() and the code to make the module paths absolute into
the new setup_python() function. So this code is no more executed when the
module is imported, only when main() is executed. We have a better control on
when the setup is done.
* Move textwrap import from printlist() to the top level.
* Some other minor cleanup.
