From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> Sometimes, failures in a test case are actually caused by issues in earlier test cases. To make it easier to see those issues, let's attach the output from before the failing test case (i.e. stdout/stderr since the previous failing test case, or the start of the test script). This will be visible in the "Attachments" of the details of the failed test.
