The Test Results window used to display results from the JUnit test runner does not allow a way to set the font.

This distorts a very useful feature provided by Groovy assertions, used by the (excellent) spock test framework. When a assertion fails, Groovy displays the values of each part of the assertion in a very informative format that requires a monospaced font. Otherwise, the values are not displayed under the correct expressions.

Spock uses the JUnit test runner.

For example, the following spock test:
   def "simple failing test"() {
       expect:
            Math.max(2, Math.min(3, 4)) == 4
   }

Produces this output:
Condition not satisfied:

Math.max(2, Math.min(3, 4)) == 4
     |           |          |
     3           3          false

Note, how by reporting the values of each part of the condition, you can often tell immediately why a test failed without having to debug.

This looks great in some IDEs, but gets all shifted around in Netbean's Test Results window because there doesn't seem to be a way to use a monospaced font. Sounds like a frill, but that makes this feature less valuable because you have to kind of guess which value goes with which subexpression.

Please allow a way to set the font for the Test Results window.

Thanks,

BTW, check out the spock test framework. Very concise and clear.
