Having a test method per cell and skipping with reason has made it easier to see which test is which and what the results are:

However, when a test fails, it's difficult to see why:

  1. the traceback is too long (containing info internal to celltests)
  2. can't read the text
  3. pytest's assertion rewriting is not being used? (not sure, as can't read the text :))

We could presumably do entirely better than the current modal popup anyway, but that is future work.
