Simply running all tests is necessary but not sufficient. After
running hundreds of thousands of tests, there needs to be any easy way
to figure out which tests failed and review their failure.
Just as an example, I started a project last week at work, and my
current test suite has:
• 250 passing tests. These are regression tests.
• 22 tests that fail but represent current out of scope features so
should continue to fail
• 24 failing tests for work-in-progress changes. These are the main
focus of current effort (AKA test-driven-development)

Also, at the ACCU conference, there were a lot of very experienced
people with unit tests, and they were pretty clear that the only
significant problem with D's unit test facility was not being able
to get all the failures in one run.

No source code changes necessary. Requires a corresponding update
to druntime.
Wooo! This makes me very happy. Combined with Robert's work on the
DWARF output, my birthday is five months early, it seems.
