 === Color!
 
-<b>test_colorizer.rb</b> causes the overall output output generated by Test::Unit to be nice and colorized. The failure "F"s and "E"s will now be in color as well as the totals showing how many tests passed (green) and how many failed (you guessed it -- red).

 * <b><tt>capture_output</tt></b> -- captures the standard output/error from the method under test (rather than letting it print to the screen) so that you can make assertions about it.
 * <b><tt>simulate_input</tt></b> -- if your application is expecting some kind of user input on stdin, this method can be used to simulate the input, so that your test is completely automated and self-contained.
