New description:
Unittest supports buffering of test output with the `-b` flag, such that
passing tests do not spam stdout/stderr with output. This is the default
behaviour for nosetests, as well.
I can't see any way to enable this behaviour in `manage.py test`. Has
adding support for this flag been considered?
Currently my workaround is to use nosetests (with django-nose), but that
test runner appears to be [https://github.com/django-nose/django-
nose/issues/276 bugged] WRT the new `--parallel` flag, so it's not a
perfect solution.
