Ah, I should have said: the information doesn't come from run-bindings-tests.

Ideally we'd have information about the specific failures in there (eg. "TestMapLike.idl" specifically, as opposed to "something failed, please manually look at the output"). That would enable EWS to make better decisions about patches that fix some failures on a red tree, for example.

In the absence of that, Bindings EWS will have to continue to treat such cases as generic failures as it does currently. (eg. Comment 41 on https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=159781 )

We can add stuff to the JSON results without printing, but we don't have any information currently (beyond the fact that something failed).
