Description: 

Drupal 7.81 brings some testing improvements in the form of some new options that can be passed to the run-tests.sh script.

These new options may be particularly noteworthy for anyone running D7 tests locally during development:

  --fail-only When paired with --verbose, do not print the detailed messages
              for passing tests.

  --cache     (Experimental) Cache result of setUp per installation profile.
              This will create one cache entry per profile and is generally safe
              to use.
              To clear all cache entries use --clean.

  --cache-modules

              (Experimental) Cache result of setUp per installation profile and
              installed modules. This will create one copy of the database
              tables per module-combination and therefore this option should not
              be used when running all tests. This is most useful for local
              development of individual test cases. This option implies --cache.
              To clear all cache entries use --clean.
