@nicoddemus LOL! I did not expect anyone to react so quickly on my suggestion. I was waiting for some feedback, imagining that I will have to make it myself. Not a complaint.

I love it! And is it obvious from the photo how much easier is to read.

My vote is for first option, I personally dislike bold on terminal because it makes the shape of the letters harder to read, some terminals do not even support bold. Using default text color is good here.

If you use vscode, you might also be interested about microsoft/vscode#147769 -- i was bit engaged with microsoft on making the terminal links easier to click as sometimes it fails to open the files.

Hehehe got some time to work on pytest and seemed like a nice improvement to tackle in a couple of hours.

We can use another color for the test names too.

I think this is nice, 👍.

BTW, here is the output of a JavaScript test runner called jest:

Two relevant things:

1. In some cases it uses green/yellow/red background instead of letter color.
2. It hyperlinks the test names to the file using file:// URLs. This is a feature that a growing number of terminal emulators support. It adds the thin dashed underline.

Yeah we can probably use that more. 👍

@bluetech how is your opinion on the use of bold for test names? I kind like it, but @ssbarnea said it makes the text harder to read in some terminal configurations.

I somewhat like the bold, and jest uses it too. I'll leave it to you to decide :)

Well since @ssbarnea didn't cast a hard no on it, being a personal preference, let's keep the bold then, because I also like it (and other runners also use bold as @bluetech said, so that's another argument in favor). 👍

Some things need to hit the market. If it proves less than ideal, we will see others complaining. Anyway thanks for the improvements!
