Add API, for other tools to see test results

Issue #29 wontfix
David Millington created an issue

It would be great if TestInsight had a simple API, to share the test results or status.

For example:

  • List of methods that are tested (unit filename, plus class&method name), with status (passed, failed, running)

  • Notifications when that status changes - eg, 'TI is starting to run tests', 'TI has finished all tests', 'TI tried to run but could not compile', etc

  • Maybe allowing a test run to be invoked, ie a 'run tests now' method

This would allow other plugins to report the results as well, such as in the code editor directly on the method that is passing or failing, or on the line that failed in that method, etc. It would also allow tools to invoke testing. Like all APIs this could lead to all sorts of nifty possibilities.
