Great!

>+    'random' => sub { $randomizeTests = 1; },

This should be declared as follows since it's boolean and to allow for
"--no-random":

>+    'random!' => \$randomizeTests,

Needs a ChangeLog.

r=me assuming the above two issues are fixed.

Once this lands, we need a way to make a given randomization repeatable, e.g.,
by writing out the order into a text file.  We should also be able to reduce
the failure to the minimum set of test cases needed reproduce it.  I'll file a
follow-up bug.
