I generally have pretty granular `@testset`s, which can have messages attached that are printed on failure. That way I still get a description of what failed.
I think the lack of indentation for nested testsets is a regression that hit 0.5 (BaseTestNext on 0.4 indents nested testsets), and there’s currently an issue filed: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/18611 <https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/18611> so they should get re-prettified soon enough. -s On Fri, Oct 28, 2016, at 10:30 AM, Florian Oswald wrote: > I know there are many testing packages out there.
