Ah, that's good to know.

Yeah, I think this would work.
I chatted with Brendan and David about this and suggested this approach.

This definitely seems useful, so I definitely think we should keep it
in mind, even if we don't get an implementation done in the near
future.

Ack, thanks!

I might take another stab at applying the patches locally, but based
on my brief skim over them, everything seemed fine from a KUnit point
of view. It's quite clear you've read over KUnit pretty thoroughly
(e.g. figured out how to create new managed resources, etc.). So I
probably won't have any feedback to give.

Ah, I was not concerned about test runtime at all.
I was just suggesting that real-time output would be useful if you
didn't have it already.
