Feature request: smarter breadcrumbs in freespec

[jlous]

Would it be possible for the kotest plugin to provide its own breadcrumbs?

When using FreeSpec, the default kotlin breadcrumbs become just a number of anonymous lambdas shown as "{...}".
This is basically useless.

I would like in stead to see the actual case names in the breadcrumbs.

I love FreeSpec, and use it for functional tests suites sort of cucumber-style.
Those can easily become both long and deep enough that it would be really useful with some help keeping track of exactly which requirement you are looking at.

Can you screengrab the breadcrumbs you mean ?

[sksamuel]

You mean this? I had never seen this before, TIL

[jlous]

Sorry I didn't respond sooner. Yes, those are the breadcrumbs. I see they are more useful now than before, but could still be trimmed down to mirror text used in the test run pane

There's an extension point for this https://plugins.jetbrains.com/docs/intellij/additional-minor-features.html#breadcrumbs
but it doesn't look like I can override the built in kotlin one. I've just been playing about with it for a few minutes and my custom one doesn't get picked up before the default kotlin provider.
