Is there a verbose/colored mode for `lein test` / `clojure.test`?


The default output from clojure.test via lein test is pretty underwhelming:

Ran 1 tests containing 1 assertions.
0 failures, 0 errors.

I guess maybe Clojure people are minimalists, but in every other language I've used test runners use red/green colors to indicate failing/passing tests at a glance, and generally come with a verbose mode I can use to see each test being run.

It looks like possibly I can do this through the do-report method in clojure.test. But is there a plugin or option or something that does this already?

  • kaocha and eftest can both be used with lein test and produce colourful test output.
