Why nobody seems to care about joining TAP standard? Not sure. Probably it comes down to what you need depending on your tool chain. But there are alternatives. Most prominent to my knowledge is subunit [0]. Here is a comparison between the two [1]. One warning when you jump on the TAP train: Using the Python YAML module PyYAML you will have to find out that TAP uses a YAML subset called YAMLish [3]. It's not the same and pretty much defined by the Perl implementation.
