4128	CircleCI Debian environments fail to report test outcome on test failure	hacklschorsch	hacklschorsch	"The [https://github.com/tahoe-lafs/tahoe-lafs/blob/e27a8300d91c78ab4b8f54affa5b4d064901caf7/.circleci/run-tests.sh#L76-L87 `ALLOWED_FAILURE` mechanism] in `.circleci/run-tests.sh` is faulty:

When turned off (failure not allowed) it makes the CI job exit before the test results, stored in Subunit2 format, are converted to JUnitXML format for viewing in CircleCI.

Since outputting to Subunit2 robs us of text output in stdout, CircleCI doesn't show us useful output at all when tests fail."	defect	closed	normal	undecided	dev-infrastructure	n/a	invalid	ci
