Comment (by jorbin):

 For your own tests, you can create a new wp die handler that doesn't
 return html by filtering wp_die_handler.  You can see an example in
 https://github.com/post-forking/post-
 forking/blob/master/tests/wp_die_handler.php

 In https://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/880/tests/trunk we removed
 wp-tests.php and that contained a filter for the wp_die_handler (this code
 still lives in
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tests/trunk/includes/utils.php#L305
 but it seems to be unused now)

 I think we should re-add the filter for all tests and create a new handler
 that returns information in plain text.
