Description (last modified by roed)

There are several improvements that would be good to make, including but not limited to:

  1. Forking rather than starting up a new Sage each time.
  2. Customizable comparison rather than mutating doctests into new doctests (e.g. followup to #10952).
  3. Eliminate need to write temporary files for every doctested file.
  4. Constant headaches caused by the difference in doctesting library vs. non-library files.
  5. The ability to drop into a debugger if a doctest raises an exception.

Robert's code is at

​http://code.google.com/p/sagemath-timer/

and does most of the above (plus more which has been moved to followup tickets #12720 and #12722)

12415_2.patch seems to contain a lot of tempfile changes, could you split out the doctest changes into a separate patch (or are these affecting doctests?)
