New submission from Ezio Melotti: The attached patch is a proof of concept that changes the output of regrtest so that the "[xxx/yyy] test_zzzzzz" is updated in place instead of printing each test on a separate line. Failures, skips, and the final report are printed normally, making it easier to find what failed without having to scroll for 400+ lines of output. The patch works with and without -j, but I haven't tested it with other flags.
If people like the idea, this could be the default behavior, otherwise a new flag to enable the feature could be added (or it could be enabled with the already existing -q/--quiet). Also attached a sample output of a full test run. ---------- components: Tests files: regr.diff keywords: patch messages: 185302 nosy: brett.cannon, chris.jerdonek, ezio.melotti, haypo, pitrou, r.david.murray priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Compact output for regrtest type: enhancement versions: Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file29585/regr.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17554> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
