There are lots of modules to change here. I wonder if some or most of this couldn't be automated. For example, is there any reason we couldn't write a script to check for the type of test duplication fixed documentation-wise in issue 16835? We could use such a script to find the classes that need to be updated when removing test_main (or to double-check existing test modules). I don't know if there are ever times we want such duplication.
