Description
Description
Test is identifiable, which is handy to distinguish between tests and avoid letting "global" state to bleed between tests since they can be bucketed by Test.ID. Unfortunately, this breaks when it comes to parameterized tests, because each parameterized case is the same test and thus has the same identity.
Expected behavior
Ideally, Test.ID would incorporate the SPI-internal Test.Case.ID into its identity, or Test.Case.ID would be publicly accessible.
Actual behavior
Currently there's no way to access a parameterized test case's identity because it's SPI.
