"""Unit test for Google Test's break-on-failure mode.

A user can ask Google Test to seg-fault when an assertion fails, using
either the GTEST_BREAK_ON_FAILURE environment variable or the
--gtest_break_on_failure flag.  This script tests such functionality
by invoking gtest_break_on_failure_unittest_ (a program written with
Google Test) with different environments and command line flags.
