I don't understand. #debug: simply runs the test without wrapping them
into exception handlers, so it will just open a debugger on the spot
where the problem happens.
So if you test fails once in a while you should be able to reproduce it with
1000 timesRepeat: [ MyTest debug: #testMe ]
and be exactly in the execution where the problem happend.

Yeah maybe, but then again you can just run the tests with #debug: and
leave the debuggers open in the image, no?
