Switch to Apex output channel automatically after running Apex tests

Summary

After running Apex tests from the sidebar, command palette, or code action, the output should automatically be displayed via the Apex output channel. Currently to display the output, the user needs to manually select the Apex output channel from the drop down list provided. VS Code should automatically switch to the appropriate output channel as needed.

Steps To Reproduce:

Select a test to run via the sidebar Run test Look for results in output window at the bottom of the screen

Expected result

When the command finishes running, user should immediately see the results in the output window below - regardless of what channel the window was originally on.

Actual result Nothing happens.

VS Code Version: 50.17.0 and up

I think this may be a broader change than just Apex tests - example scenario :-

• Ran tests, now watching in the Apex view
• Tests fail, requiring code change
• Edit code, save it - push on save enabled in VS Code

• Expected : switch to Salesforce CLI view automatically so I can see confirmation of save/compile cycle to Org
  

• Actual : it stayed on the Apex tab
  

So while I understand the “separation of concerns” for the plugin pack, following context and moving to appropriate views would greatly support this change

Displaying the Apex output channel automatically was addressed by release v51.4.0, closing this issue now. Feel free to open a new issue if there are any other inconsistencies.
