           Summary: [NRWT] Would like an output mode similar to ORWT
                    verbose one
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: ap at webkit.org

When investigating flaky failures, I usually do it with "old-run-webkit-tests -v". The reason is that it runs tests sequentially, and prints each test out (so I can easily see which tests ran prior to failing one, and are the likely culprits).

This is more difficult with NRWT, because (in the order of decreasing importance):

1. its verbose output is way more verbose, to the degree that it's not easy to hunt down where test list is.

2. Retrying failing tests wastes time, and further confuses output.

3. Need to pass extra options (--num-processes) is understandable, but inconvenient nonetheless.
