Interpolate Dataset Name in Test Name

[JHWelch]

I like to be able to have my test names be as concise and descriptive as possible. I appreciate that we can name dataset entries, which makes them much more descriptive.

I would like to be able to take this a step further and be able to interpolate the name of the dataset somewhere in the test name so that it can be even more descriptive in plain english.

Example

With the following test for sorting inside of a table

it('can sort by all fields', function ($field, $data, $expected) {
    /* ... */
})->with([
    'name' => [ /* ... */ ],
    'email' => [ /* ... */ ],
    'created_at' => [ /* ... */]
]);

The Pest response will be

   PASS  Tests\Feature\TableSortTest
  ✓ it can sort by all fields with dataset "name"                                                                                                            
  ✓ it can sort by all fields with dataset "email"
  ✓ it can sort by all fields with dataset "created_at"

I want to be able to update the name of the test with some sort of flag, similar to the :attribute placeholder in Laravel validation

So lets say I can update the test name to

it('can sort by :dataset field', function (/* ... */){/* ... */})

And then the tests would appear as

   PASS  Tests\Feature\TableSortTest
  ✓ it can sort by "name" field                                                                                                     
  ✓ it can sort by "email" field
  ✓ it can sort by "created_at" field

Or maybe without the "s auto applied.

Questions

• Is this possible or straightforward?
• Would others find this useful?
• I would be interested in PRing this if feasible, does anyone know where in codebase to get started?

Like the idea, don't have the source code ad hand, but I think DatasetRepository is the place to look at ;)
