Don't apply colors to the "ok 1" and "not ok 1" prefix. This has the benefit of making the test names easier to visually extract for developers.
It also increases compatibility with the popular
tap-parser
package which doesn't parse TAP lines correctly otherwise, since blocks like "not ok" must start on a new line, and with the color code in front, they are technically either a continuation of the previous block, or an ignored "Anything" line between two blocks.This hasn't been a problem in practice, since, if you pipe output from QUnit or TapReporter to a different process that uses tap-parser, colors are naturally disabled. But, if you get the console output from a browser process, the colors will be applied. I caught this while working on QTap (https://github.com/qunitjs/qtap).
