[New-bugs-announce] [issue17783] run the testsuite in batched mode

[Matthias Klose]

New submission from Matthias Klose:

running all the tests in one batch sometimes can go wrong. there is of course the --single mode, but starting the testsuite for each single test seems to be a bit of overhead.  So extend the --single API to something like --next=<n> which runs the next <n> tests. or would --batch be a better name? and maybe don't change the single default parameter in the signature, and introduce a new parameter.

the proposed patch is currently against the 3.3 branch, and without doc changes.
