Research direction

Start with the README entry for "View Test Result" and trace the implementation of the result popup, failure highlighting, and console output. Done means the failing code remains highlighted while the result text is available in the console or a separate console-like view, without blocking editing.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

ai-triaged enhancement low-priority test-reporting ui
  • the feature in the read me called "View Test Result" pops up directly inside the code I am working.
  • We need an option to send this box/text to the console
  • highlight the code that is failing, and then output the results down in the console window or in a new console like box
  • the existing setup, won't let us even edit the line of code that is being highlighted, is difficult to read and forces me to hit the trash can just to continue to work
  • just highlight where it fails and output to a console window please
