    Consider this code:

        import unittest
    
    
        class TC(unittest.TestCase):
    
            def test_subtest(self):
                with self.subTest():
                    pass
    
    
        tc = TC('test_subtest')
        tc.run()

    This works when executed, but if we change tc.run() to tc.debug() we get the following exception:

        Traceback (most recent call last):
          File ".tmp\test-unittest-regression.py", line 13, in <module>
            tc.debug()
          File "C:\Users\Bruno\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\unittest\case.py", line 658, in debug
            getattr(self, self._testMethodName)()
          File ".tmp\test-unittest-regression.py", line 7, in test_subtest
            with self.subTest():
          File "C:\Users\Bruno\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\contextlib.py", line 81, in __enter__
            return next(self.gen)
          File "C:\Users\Bruno\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\unittest\case.py", line 512, in subTest
            if not self._outcome.result_supports_subtests:
        AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'result_supports_subtests'    

    Looking at the code, subTest assumes that the TestCase instance has the self._outcome atribute, which is set only by run().

    PR 9707 looks good to me. I will merge it once your CLA is processed by the PSF staff. Thanks!

    FYI, I just noticed that this is a duplicate of bpo-29551, but decided to keep this one open.

    OK thanks. I did try to search for open issues before filing this one by using the "subtest result_supports_subtests" terms, as I figured a bug report would include the traceback, that's why I didn't find 29551, heh.
