No retry attempts are logged in stdout when setting different reporter other than `spec`

Current behavior:

cypress run doesn’t output retries logging in the terminal when using reporters other than spec.

Desired behavior:

Having cypress run to always output retries logging in the terminal (at least be able to enable it).

This was possible in the cypress retries plugin with this:

module.exports = (on, config) => {
  require('cypress-plugin-retries/lib/plugin')(on)
}

Test code to reproduce

run a failing test with any mocha reporter except spec e.g cypress run --reporter list

Versions

Cypress 5.0.0

right, It’s a reasonable request for us to add retry info to existing internal mocha reporters. Reopening

As a workaround you can use:

// plugins/index.js

module.exports = (on, config) => {
  on('task', {
    log: param => console.log(...Array.isArray(param) ? param : [ param ]) || true
  });
};

// support/index.ts

const config: any = Cypress.config();
if (!config.isInteractive && config.reporter !== 'spec') {
  afterEach(() => {
    const test = (cy as any).state('runnable')?.ctx?.currentTest;
    if (test?.state === 'failed' && test?._currentRetry < test?._retries) {
      cy.task('log', `    (Attempt ${test._currentRetry + 1} of ${test._retries + 1}) ${test.title}`, { log: false });
    }
  });
}
