Introduction
This PEP describes a proposal to make unittest2 output more accurate and fun.
The Proposed Solution
Upon having more than 7 failing tests in a test run replace all 'F' character output with 'U's for the remainder of the test run.
Rationale
This output formatting more accurately describes the mental state of the developer.
Example
.....FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
CK
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 25 tests in 3.14159s
FAILED (failures=19)
`
Optional Add-On
Replace next passing test after 19 failures with 'CK'.
