When a single test is run we don't need to buffer the test output. This has the unfortunate side effect of suppressing test output, in particular the binman output directory normally printed with the -X option. This is a huge problem since it blocks debugging of tests.
We don't actually know how many tests will be run when we set up the suite, so as a work-around, assume that test_name being specified indicates that there is likely only one.
