#848: Don't prefix test output with ">>>"
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
Reporter: tibbe | Owner: ttuegel

----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
The `cabal test` output is a bit too noisy.

}}}
My original request was for the Cabal output (such as "Running 1 test
suites...") to be prefixed by ">>>" and the test output to be kept
verbatim.
This is not quite what happens now as you see above.
Here's my new suggestion: since Cabal normally doesn't prefix command
output, we should not do so in the test output either. Just output stdio
verbatim from the test and don't prefix anything with ">>>".
