New description:

 There are several improvements that would be good to make, including but
 not limited to:

  1. Forking rather than starting up a new Sage each time.
  1. Customizable comparison rather than mutating doctests into new
 doctests (e.g. followup to #10952).
  1. Eliminate need to write temporary files for every doctested file.
  1. Constant headaches caused by the difference in doctesting library vs.
 non-library files.
  1. The ability to drop into a debugger if a doctest raises an exception.

 Robert's code is at

 http://code.google.com/p/sagemath-timer/

 and does most of the above (plus more which has been moved to followup
 tickets #12720 and #12722)

 '''Apply''' [attachment:12415_stderr_vs_51b5.patch],
 [attachment:12415_doctest_fixes.patch],
 [attachment:12415_framework.patch], [attachment:12415_doc.patch]

 '''Apply''' [attachment:12415_script.patch] to the scripts repo

 '''Apply''' [attachment:12415_sagenb_fixes_vs_11080.patch] to the sagenb
 repo (fixes doctest errors) or wait for #13121

 '''Apply''' [attachment:12415_spkg_bin_sage.patch] to the root repo

Comment (by kini):

 I imported the patch: https://github.com/sagemath/sagenb/pull/84

 I'll cut a sagenb 0.10.2 release with this fix in it. Jeroen, are you
 aware of any other tickets with bugfix-type patches to sagenb which I
 could merge at the same time?
