+=======================================
+
+Test runner exit status code
+----------------------------
+
+The exit status code of the test runners (``tests/runtests.py`` and ``python
+manage.py test``) no longer represents the number of failed tests, since a
+failure of 256 or more tests resulted in a wrong exit status code.  The exit
+status code for the test runner is now 0 for success (no failing tests) and 1
+for any number of test failures.  If needed, the number of test failures can be
+found at the end of the test runner's output.
