OT:
We have two ways of addressing tests, by number and by name.
Usually when a test fails ("Foo gobbles the bar correctly" failed),
I want to run tests 1,17 (1 is the correct setup and 17 is the failing test)
But coming up with that tuple is hard.
  * How do I know we need to run 1 as the setup ? (usually we do,
    sometimes we don't and other times we also need 2,3 to completely
setup the tests)
  * How do I know it's test 17 which is failing? My workflow up to now
    I just searched the test title in the file, such that I'd be there anyway
    to inspect it further. But still I found it inconvenient to
mentally map between
    17 and the test title.
