You're right it can be a bonus. But to sell that to a group of
people who already have something that works very well, is
already integrated with their IDE, continuous integration
package, build system, etc. you've got a tough job ;-)
I think it’s likely to be a hard sell precisely because it’s bad
in the ways that IDE-integrated stuff is good,
Of course this issue is nothing to do with any intrinsic property of
TAP. There's nothing stopping TAP being integrated much more tightly
- there just needs to be somebody with that itch to scratch.

I guess the best marketing opportunity would be to target the
developers who have to deal with at least somewhat heterogenous
systems despite their use of typical IDE+xUnit languages –
they’re the most likely to be feeling the sort of pain from their
current tool that will make them receptive to the benefits of
TAP.

Yup. That sound like a potentially itchy group ;-)
