An rspec formatter which is concise on success and pretty on failures. It behaves like the standard formatter, printing only nice green dots. Except when a spec failes, then it prints the failing spec verbosely, so that you instantly see what's wrong.
$ bundle exec rspec spec/models/admin_spec.rb -f PrettyFailFormatter
....F
1) Admin#does something stupid
Failure/Error: expect(subject.stupid).to be true
