To unify running tests in Python 2.7 and Python 3, the test
package can be run as a script. This is equivalent to running the
test.regrtest module as a script.

I tested your change, and it doesn't work.

Did you forget to include Lib/test/main.py as mentioned in the commit title?


The :mod:`test.test_support` module has been renamed to :mod:`test.support`
in Python 3.x and 2.7.13. The name ``test.test_support`` has been retained
in Python 3.x and 2.7.14. The name ``test.test_support`` has been retained

This change is ok: the commit a694e09 is not part of Python 2.7.13.

(Maybe it's time to backport test_regrtest.py :-) It's up to you, just add main.py and it will be ok.)

"Add missed Lib/test/main.py."

Ah, it's now better: it works ;-)

test_regrtest.py mainly tests regrtest._parse_args() which doesn't exist in 2.7. It was added when regrtest was switched from using getopt to using argparse. This was a large change.
