25516	Document that pdb isn't compatible with parallel test runner	Daniel Wiesmann	nobody	"I regularly use the testing framework to run code I am working on and use pdb/ipdb to halt the execution and do some ""manual"" testing.

In parallel testing mode I was not able to do that, as the pdb.set_trace() statement exits automatically. I guess that this is could be expected and maybe desired behaviour, but if not it would be nice to be able to ipdb into tests run in parallel as well.

It took me a while to find the reason for the automatic exits, so if its not possible to pdb into parlallel tests, maybe adding a line or two in the documentation about this could be helpful for others."
