TDD statistics

Hi,

Here is a very low-priority nice to have feature I think would be cool (but just "cool", not useful).

It would be fun to have some statistics on your TDD cycle, like :

* Time spent in each phase (red/green) in a day? week?
* Number of times you went from red to green
* Average duration of each phase
* Longest red phase
* Most broken tests at once
* Number of time you wrote code while been already in the green phase
* Many more I'm sure.

I know this is most likely not a priority, but if one day you ever have free time (I doubt it), I think many of us could enjoy these statistics.

"Hey dude! My average time in the red phase is better than yours! Oh yeah!"

Thanks!
Jni
Hi, thanks for sharing this idea!

I did have some similar thoughts around a metric that would let you know roughly how many hours of test running NCrunch has saved you, which would be an obvious sales pitch for the product during its evaluation :)

I'll make a note of these ideas in the backlog. It's quite hard to prioritise them above other tasks (such as compatibility and performance improvements), but NCrunch WAS built to be cool .. not just useful!


Thanks again,

Remco
