As a way of dealing with the immediate need, I'd love to see a way
to just tell TAP::Harness to emit all diagnostics, whether failure
diagnostics or freeform output, as you say. It should be off by
default, as you pointed out in the first two paragraphs, but I'd
turn it on by default for pg_prove.
So can I send you a patch?
Hrm. Reading the documentation:
=item * C<verbosity>
Set the verbosity level:
1 verbose Print individual test results to STDOUT.
0 normal
-1 quiet Suppress some test output (mostly failures
while tests are running).
-2 really quiet Suppress everything but the tests summary.
-3 silent Suppress everything.
This makes me think that -1 should actually be "normal", from what
Schwern has said, and 0 should include the failures and diagnostics
and messages and whatnot (# stuff), as Andy seems to have expected in
the past. But I can't really figure out how to change this without
breaking compatibility. Can you?
Best,
David
