Description bht 2016-10-18 03:54:01 UTC 
The IDE prompts via a bubble to open test results after the completion of all tests. Is it possible to display the test results while tests complete / fail before all of the tests are completed? I might be overlooking a feature that already provides this.

It would be useful with tests that take very long to run, providing a chance to cancel when some unexpected results justify this.

In development mode, from my perspective, this turns out more critical than I thought it was. Withe long running tests, simple errors that should be reason enough to abort the test, cannot be spotted until the test is finished, wasting time. Unless, of course, I am missing something.

possibly relevant :
"skipping tests after first/Nth failure" using configuration parameter skipAfterFailureCount
see https://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin/examples/skip-after-failure.html
