Problem
When tests fail, users cannot see the raw Pest output that would help them debug the issue. The gate only shows processed/formatted output through the table interface.
Current Behavior
- Pest runs with
--colors=never flag
- Output is processed and formatted into table
- Raw stderr and debugging context is lost
Expected Behavior
Add a --debug flag to show raw Pest output before formatting.
Proposed Implementation
File: app/Checks/TestRunner.php:46-50
Add debug output option:
$result = $this->processRunner->run(
['vendor/bin/pest', '--coverage', "--min={$this->coverageThreshold}", "--coverage-clover={$cloverPath}", '--colors=never'],
$workingDirectory,
timeout: 300,
);
// Add this after the run
if ($this->option('debug')) {
echo "\n=== Raw Pest Output ===\n";
echo $result->output;
echo "\n=======================\n";
}
File: app/Commands/CertifyCommand.php:29
Add debug flag to signature:
protected $signature = 'certify
{--coverage=80 : Minimum coverage threshold percentage}
{--token= : GitHub token for Checks API}
{--stop-on-failure : Stop at first failing check}
{--compact : Show single-line output instead of verbose}
{--debug : Show raw command output for debugging}';
Benefits
- Helps users debug complex test failures
- Provides full context that table formatting removes
- Non-breaking change (opt-in flag)

This would help debug issue #63 (table truncation) by providing alternative output method.
