Description

Hi,

I am the author the IntelliJ plugin for gleam. Recently I added the test run configuration, but I can't create a test results tree UI since the output is always anonymous dots for successes. The one thing I could parse is the <module>.<function> in the failure block.

From my exploration, currently there is no parametrization to change the output format.

Would it be possible for gleeunit to provide a structured or verbose output mode? Just a quick verbose output would allow me to implement the test tree. The best scenario would be using a standard output format like TAP / Junit XML (sorry for the java ecosystem jumpscare) since it's a clear contract, but just a verbose output would be good.

Thanks!

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing gleeunit's current EUnit result output, then compare the requested verbose, TAP, and JUnit XML approaches; done means a selectable format exposes stable success and failure details for the IntelliJ test tree.
