The reporter class is responsible for formatting and presenting test results within the µTest++ framework. It provides a comprehensive suite of output operators for a wide range of data types, containers, and comparator expressions, enabling detailed and informative reporting of test outcomes.
For failed tests, the reporter prints the actual values of the operands along with their types, supporting precise diagnostics and efficient debugging. The class supports multiple verbosity levels and colour-coded output to distinguish between successful and failed tests, thereby enhancing the clarity and professionalism of test reports.
The reporter also offers methods for reporting the commencement and completion of test cases and suites, as well as for handling pass and fail conditions. Additional features include output stream manipulators, support for exception-related expressions, and configurable formatting options.
All members and methods are defined within the micro_os_plus::micro_test_plus namespace, ensuring clear separation from user code and minimising the risk of naming conflicts.

| micro_os_plus::micro_test_plus::reporter::reporter | ( | std::unique_ptr< std::vector< std::string_view > > | argvs | ) |
| argvs | Owning pointer to the command-line arguments vector; the reporter takes ownership via move. |
Moves the supplied argument vector into argvs_ and scans it for the --verbose, --quiet, --silent, and --output-file= options, adjusting verbosity_ and optionally opening the output file. If the output file path is specified but the file cannot be opened, the process exits with a diagnostic error message. The internal string buffer is pre-allocated to reduce dynamic allocation overhead.

Returns a reference to the expression_formatter instance used by the reporter for formatting expressions in test reports. This allows the reporter to delegate the formatting of complex expressions to the expression_formatter, which provides a consistent and extensible way to convert various types of values and expressions into their string representations for output in test reports.

| func | Function pointer to the stream manipulator. |
This operator overload enables manipulators, such as endl, to be used with the reporter stream in a manner similar to standard C++ streams.

This operator overload appends the contents of the provided std::string_view to the internal output buffer of the reporter. It enables seamless streaming of string data into the reporter, supporting clear and efficient formatting of test output across all test cases and folders.

References reporter(), and buffer_.
| reporter & micro_os_plus::micro_test_plus::reporter::operator<< | ( | T * | v | ) |
| T | The type of the pointer. |
| v | The pointer value to output. |
This operator overload enables the reporter to output pointer values in a consistent and readable format.
Null pointers are always rendered as the string "nullptr", regardless of the platform, avoiding platform-specific behaviour such as "(nil)" on Linux/glibc or "0x0" on macOS.
Non-null pointers are formatted as a hexadecimal address using snprintf with the p format specifier. The resulting string is appended to the internal output buffer, allowing pointer values to be included in test reports and diagnostics.
This approach provides clear and unambiguous representation of pointer addresses, which is particularly useful for debugging and verifying pointer-related test cases.

References reporter(), and buffer_.
| reporter & micro_os_plus::micro_test_plus::reporter::operator<< | ( | T | v | ) |
| T | The arithmetic type. |
| v | The value to output. |
This template operator overload allows the reporter to output values of any arithmetic type (integral or floating-point) in a consistent and readable format. The value is formatted using the append_number_ helper function, which handles the conversion to a string representation with appropriate type suffixes where applicable (e.g., "f" for float, "l" for long double). This enables numeric values to be included in test reports and diagnostics in a clear and unambiguous manner, supporting the verification of test cases that involve arithmetic expressions and comparisons.

Constructs and emits two informational lines: the first lists the programme name and any command-line arguments; the second identifies the compiler (Clang, GCC, or MSVC) together with the version string, floating-point availability on bare-metal targets, exception support, and any active debug or trace macros. Both lines are written to the output file when one is open, and to stdout unless verbosity is set to silent.
