Add option NOT to override the test failures output files #4

This would cater for the scenario when there is more than one failing test, but one is fixing up just one test at a time. Currently, running a single test will zap the existing test failure list.

How about we archive all previous failures on the next run - so test_rerun.txt gets re-written as test_rerun-{{timestamp}}.txt each time it's run.

stevejalim commented 8 years ago

I hear you. That might leave behind a lot of files, tho.

How about a syslog-style pattern where we generate test_rerun.txt as latest, after suffixing the previous one as test_rerun.txt .0 ....1 ....2 etc

And then allow a max num of those to exist...?

Ugh. Complex tho

@stevejalim it may not be that hard if you use logger and its RotatingFileHandler. The rewrite of this module will become less tedious, it may also partially solve #6. Reusing the rerun logs would become a burden, though, but if it would really be optional, masochist developers may want to turn it on :)
