Great! I'll do that next week (:
Any preference on the wording? A few options:
- Update the test count to only count the tests that were run. My
example above would become: 9 tests, 2 failures, 15 excluded
- This is my preference, but I'm not picky
- Keep the existing output but add in a new field for the tests that
were run. My example above would become: 24 tests, 9 executed, 2 failures,
15 excluded
- This one feels more redundant
- I'm open to labelling it something other than "executed" but that's
all I can think of at the moment
