trait Notifying extends AnyRef
Trait that contains the note
method, which can be used to send a status notification to the reporter.
The difference between note
and the info
method of Informer
is that
info
messages provided during a test are recorded and sent as part of test completion event, whereas
note
messages are sent right away as NoteProvided
messages. For long-running tests,
note
allows you to send "status notifications" to the reporter right away, so users can track the
progress of the long-running tests. By contrast, info
messages will only be seen by the user after the
test has completed, and are more geared towards specification (such as Given/When/Then messages) than notification.
The difference between note
and the alert
method of Alerting
is
that alert
is intended to be used
for warnings or notifications of potential problems, whereas note
is just for status notifications.
In string reporters for which ANSI color is enabled, note
notifications are shown in green and alert
notifications
in yellow.
