The colours are sxy-test-runner's own rather than the theme's, so the file reads like the
terminal whatever theme is active:
part
colour
status line 0, and complete tallies (3/3)
#20d970 mediumgreen
status line non-zero, short tallies (8/10), e: errors
#e0444c mediumred
d: describe thing
#1E90FF brightblue
f: / d: / t: / e: prefixes, tally labels
#C0C0C0 lightgrey
timestamp, duration, (...) tally detail, the -1 line
grey
f: file paths and t: test names
your normal foreground
They ship as configurationDefaults. If you already have an
editor.tokenColorCustomizations block with top-level textMateRules in settings.json,
VS Code replaces these rather than merging, and the file will show no colour - copy the
rules from this extension's package.json into your own block to restore them.
