Request for --json flag to output the result in JSON

[balupton]

I'm hoping to use testen to programatically set the "engines.node" flag in my package.json file.

As such, I don't particularly wish to have to manually parse:

  ✖  0.8   failed   3693ms
  ✖  0.10  failed   1490ms
  ✖  0.12  failed   4206ms
  ✖  4     failed   4164ms
  ✔  6     success  4263ms
  ✔  8     success  3739ms
  ✔  10    success  3656ms

It would be a lot nicer if running testen with say a --json flag returned the following:

{
	"success": [4, 6, 8],
	"failed": [0.8, 0.10, 0.12]
}

That way I can do this:

cat package.json | json -e "this.engines.node = '>=$(testen --json | jq .success[0]')'" > package.json

Ok done, will push up nowish

Alright. I've accomplished it over at bevry/testen. And is live on the @bevry/testen npm package with version 3.0.0.

The fork is a significant rewrite, hence why it is a fork instead of a PR.

@egoist if you would like to co-maintain the new package with me, that would be great. The only caveat though is that it would have to remain on the bevry github org, due to the automated release cycle that is now adopted. (the documentation publish and npm release occur via continuous integration). I'd add you as a team member on the @bevry org, and you'd have write access to the repo. Any git tag will trigger a new release, and git tags can be verified and created via npm run our:release:prepare then npm our:release as detailed in the CONTRIBUTING.md document. Happy to discuss this with you!
