Is this project abandoned? Alternatives? #311

This extension is being referenced in the Mocha docs, however, it seems to have a few critical issues which are being reported but were not fixed.

1) It requires some nyc which you have to installed manually. 2) It ignores mocha configuration so you have to create a duplicate of your existing one. 3) It doesn't work in workspaces 4) It doesn't work at all.

Is there an alternative?

Despite the rough edges and lack of commit since May 2019, it is quite shockingly still the best visual test runner for mocha in vscode! I've been using it since it first came out pretty much and have figured out ways to be productive with the bugs and missing functionality but it there is clearly a need for this extension and it would be good to see it get the love it deserves. I'm shortly about to be taking a break from work and this is one of the projects I'm considering spending some time on. If you're looking for a maintainer for this repo @maty21, please get in touch. :)
