[Python-Dev] unittest.main() --catch parameter

[anatoly techtonik]

I am looking at --help of test runner and asking the question: what is
the use case for -c, --catch option? It doesn't look like it should be
present in generic runner. I also can't find reasons to waste short
option for it. There will be big problems with people complaining
about BC break even if this option is not used by anyone.

Usage: tests.py [options] [test] [...]

Options:
  -h, --help       Show this message
  -v, --verbose    Verbose output
  -q, --quiet      Minimal output
  -f, --failfast   Stop on first failure
  -c, --catch      Catch control-C and display results
  -b, --buffer     Buffer stdout and stderr during test runs
