[darcs-devel] [issue1112] wish: less confusing make bugs output

[Eric Kow]

New submission from Eric Kow <kowey at darcs.net>:

The shell harness should be updated so that 'make bugs' treats test failures as
normal.

Also: one thing worth looking into is silencing the shell failures (just saying
fail, rather than returning the whole -ev output).  I suspect the way to go
about this is to remove -ev from test scripts...

AH, but then how do we know what when wrong?  How do we get the context?  What I
would propose is that if there is a tests_to_run file, we run the tests as if
-ev was set.  Alternatively, we could always set -ev for tests/ but not for
bugs/ (because failing is normal)
