(Res) reset/refresh the progress bar earlier.

I know this seems trivial, but it keeps grating on me. Perhaps because my tests have a time-consuming setup() step, after I push the cool green "Run" arrow, it takes a long time before the progress bar resets itself and starts accumulating new results. I have to spend ~10 seconds staring at the red "FAILED" bar from my previous attempt. It would be better for my psyche if it cleared the color and told me something like "Starting tests".

Even better would be a little annotation saying, "It'll work this time for sure, Bob!"

Cheers,
--Bob

    So I have figured out that my whine is applicable only to running tests from the TestCase level. It works as I'd hoped when I run from the TestSuite level.
    I'm such a newb.

  • Hey Bob,

    Your frustration has been noted. These kind of seemingly trivial things are also a personal pet peeve of mine I'll log this as a feature request, and we'll update you whenever there's new information.
