Oh, so now we can have verbose quietness? Or is it quiet verbosity?
That quickly leads to insanity.... :/

The quiet flag only suppresses output that is otherwise logged and
output when a failure occurs. Hence setting the quiet won't cause
any loss of functionality or error detection for these tests so you
should just add the quiet flag to the tests.

Cheers,

Dave.
