There are many cases where it is not clear if a failure has happened inside a test, or before or after the test. For instance timeouts are often difficult to pinpoint where they happened.

It would be extremely helpful if there was a standard log line that was printed at the start of each test, and another that was printed at the end. With those in place there would be no question of wether a failure or timeout happens in the test or in the framework running the test.
