SuiteStarting
Event that indicates a suite of tests is about to start executing.
For example, trait Suite and object Runner use SuiteStarting to report that the execute method of a Suite is about to be invoked.
To create instances of this class you may use the factory method. For example, given a report function named report, you could fire a SuiteStarting event like this:
report(SuiteStarting(ordinal, userFriendlyName, suiteName, Some(thisSuite.getClass.getName)))
The suite class name parameter is optional, because suites in ScalaTest are an abstraction that need not necessarily correspond to one class. Nevertheless, in most cases each suite will correspond to a class, and when it does, the fully qualified name of that class should be reported by passing a Some for suiteClassName. One use for this bit of information is JUnit integration, because the "name" provided to a JUnit org.junit.runner.Description appears to usually include a fully qualified class name by convention.
