New description:
This patch implements TestSuite(object).run() which runs
systematic checks on the object. Here is a typical call:
{{{
sage: TestSuite(ZZ).run(verbose = True)
running ._test_an_element() ... done
running ._test_element_pickling() ... done
running ._test_not_implemented_methods() ... done
running ._test_pickling() ... done
}}}
In practice, TestSuite(o).run() runs all the methods named _test_* of the
object o.
The _test_* methods are typically implemented by abstract super classes
and in particular via categories, in order to enforce standard
behavior and API (_test_pickling, _test_an_element), or provide
mathematical sanity checks (_test_associativity).
For consistent error reporting, the _test_* methods in turn must use
the new gadget sage.misc.sage_unittest.InstanceTester to actually
run the tests.
This is used by the category patches #5891 and followers
