+ * to exit without finishing properly, the error code will be 255. Right now that code is not used.
+ *
+ * When tests succeed we already call `process.exit(0)`, so this doesn't change any correct
+ * behaviour.
+ *
+ * One such case that would force node <= v6 to exit with code 0, is a Promise that doesn't resolve.
