Share a standard Reporter interface?

We on the QUnit team have been discussing the possibility of working with other JS test frameworks that can be run client-side (e.g. Mocha, Jasmine, Intern, etc.) to agree upon a standard Reporter interface so that we could hopefully share Reporter plugins between testing frameworks.

This would most likely come in the form of an EventEmitter interface (.on(...)/.off(...)) with an agreed upon:

  • minimum viable set of standardly-named events
  • associated standard set of data/details provided for each event
  • minimum viable set of standard test status types (e.g. pass, fail, skip, todo, pending, etc.)

Would you guys be interested in discussing this further with us?

If so, I've added @cjohansen, @augustl, and @dwittner to a "Team Buster" group for https://github.com/js-reporters/js-reporters.
