Hello,
The subunit output formatter that was added recently currently raises NotImplementedError when it's given a generic "error". The error() method on formatters is used to communicate user error (e.g. when the user selects incompatible options), internal framework errors (afaict, only when there's a subprocess read error) and layer setUp errors.
I find the idea of masking layer setUp errors to be unconscionably awful, so I've attached the following patch, which changes the subunit formatter's error() method to print out whatever it gets. It doesn't have any tests, but it's simple enough, and none of the other formatters have tests for this method either.
Ideally, I think there should be a new method on OutputFormatter to handle layer setup failure. Probably teardown failure too. If someone wants to push back on this simple patch in favour of a new method, I could probably be persuaded to do the work, provided I had clear backwards compatibility guidelines. Your patches look pretty reasonable to me: can you kick them into Launchpad so they don't get lost in the mailing list archives? There is a project page for zope.app.testing, but it doesn't (as of today) have the bug tracker turned on.
Branches pushed, merge proposals created, bugs filed, branches linked.
Thank you!
I have merged you changes for zope.app.testing and made a relaese: I also closed LP #560222. However, I haven't yet been able to pull your branch for the zope.testing subunit fix.
