[Zope-Coders] testrunner.py vs. test.py

[Chris McDonough]

Differences between test.py and testrunner.py include the fact that
test.py does not "cd" to the directory in which the tests are before
running them while testrunner does, so it's not unusual to see one work
and the other not work.  I had this happen to me a while back where Jim
was seeing test failures after I made a checkin (he was using test.py)
and I wasn't (I was using testrunner.py).  At that time I think it was
decided that the way to run tests was via test.py.
