Event API for 3rd party applications

Reported by benrady (at gmail) | October 12th, 2010 @ 01:31 PM

Infinitest should provide an API or other mechanism for notifying 3rd party applications when it performs tasks like running tests, when tests fail or pass, and possibly even changes in the dependency structure.

This could be used for a wide variety of things, not the least of which is tracking statistics about testing behavior.

    Every piece of data we need must be associated with a timestamp, which we obtain via System.currentTimeMillis();

    If Infinitest runs, say, 6 tests together, we'd like to know that 6 tests ran, what the test names are (ideally, including package info), and whether or not each test passed or failed.

    Same would be true if Infinitest just decided to run 1 test.

    That's about it!
