the main code is appended in main.py

if a test uses with self.subTest(), subTest() fails right in its first statement "if not self._outcome ..." because _outcome is None.

In main.py, the commented runner.run(suite) would work correctly.

If this is not meant to work, please mention it in the documentation and  improve unittest's reaction.

what I would find more logical from the users's point of view is something like

runner.debug(suite)

Thanks for the report, Wolfgang. The main cause of the issue will be resolved when we merge PR 9707. I'm closing this as a duplicate of issue 34900 since the latter has already an open PR.
