test_runner: print failed tests with dot reporter

[mcollina]

I don't think that the dot reporter is really useful, because in case of failures it does not print the failed tests. Could we make it print the failed tests?

Hi! I am interested in working on this issue. I could reproduce the scenario and can see what you mean. I would like to understand the requirements. Is the dot reporter required to print the names of the tests that failed?
example:
...X..X
name_of_the_test_that_failed_1
name_of_the_test_that_failed_2

Yes, it seems like that is what @mcollina was going for, but I could be wrong.

[mcollina]

It should report the name of failed tests identically to the spec reporter.

[mihir254]

Is this how you're expecting it? ("test that is meant to failed" is the name of the test)
I can remove the duration is that is not necessary

[avivkeller]

Looks good to start, if you submit a PR we can review it (and address any errors with it)

I've noticed suggestions to include stack traces in the dot reporter's output. Would adding detailed stack traces make it too similar to the spec reporter?
According to the node.js documentation: The dot reporter outputs the test results in a compact format
Looking forward to your thoughts on maintaining the compact nature of the dot reporter while enhancing its functionality.

the proposal is to do this only for failed tests
