It's possible to request a specific test to run when trying to run a python tool's tests. If we request a nonexistent test, the unittest loaders generate a fake test that reports this as an error. However, we get these fake tests even when the test exists, because test_util can load tests from multiple places one by one and the test we want only exists in one.
The test_util helpers currently remove these fake tests when printing test results, but that's more of a workaround than a proper solution. Instead, don't even try to load the missing tests.
