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
* "running:" progress: Format number of seconds as hours and minutes
* format_duration(): count also minutes as hours
* Create Lib/test/libregrtest/utils.py
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.
* 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.
Running the Python test suite with -jN now:
- Display the duration of tests which took longer than 30 seconds
- Display the tests currently running since at least 30 seconds
- Display the tests we are waiting for when the test suite is interrupted
Clenaup also run_test_in_subprocess() code.
Python doesn't display the refcount anymore by default. It only displays it
when -X showrefcount command line option is used, which is not the case here.
regrtest can be run with -X showrefcount, the option is not inherited by child
processes.
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.
