Description
From reading through the documentation I didn't see support for printing the json data to stdout. It looks like it currently only supports writing to a file. Could we better support this via a CLI flag?
See the following request proposal as well: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/9704#issue-1146124924

Research direction
The issue identifies the CLI's existing file-output path and requests a stdout mode; start by tracing the CLI option that selects the output destination and the related documentation. Run the plugin's CLI behavior with JSON output and confirm that the completed change writes JSON to stdout through a flag without requiring a file.
