[New-bugs-announce] [issue34285] regrtest: in case of test failure, add "always look on the bright side of life"

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor <vstinner at redhat.com>:

Debugging tests failures can be depressing, especially when working on race conditions of Python buildbots. I propose to add an easter egg in regrtest for that: in case of test of failure, write "Tests failed but... always look on the bring side of life".

This idea should be credited to Pablo Salgado!

Would it be possible to also play the song in background? Or maybe that's too much.

Maybe it should be a command line option? --always-look-on-the-bright-side-of-life, enabled by make buildbot?
