❓ Question - Unanswered - How to disable --compact when using --parallel?

[Rikj000]

Since the update to Pest v2.X,
the --parallel output is automatically --compacted.

How can one get the Non-Compacted output when running with --parallel?

(I would mostly like to be able to see my custom additional DebugLog lines when running with --parallel)

Output Examples

Non-Compacted - Non-Parallel

Command:

php81 vendor/bin/pest --group='debug'

I'd like to know too :)

[nunomaduro]

It's not possible.

[Rikj000]

That's not good, when can we expect this feature again?

Luckily laravel.log still outputs some stuff,
because now the Pest output is completely use-less if the testing suite hangs somewhere in the middle due to a faulty test... 😒

v2.0.0 is an unbelievable down-grade when it comes down to this issue...
