<p>i.e. as I compose my test suites to include other suites as well as test cases,
is there a global count of how many tests the TestRunner has executed, will be executing?</p>

<p>Any way I can progammatically access that count?</p>

not sure about how many it has executed, but couldn't you check how many total tests using
```
self.methods.grep(/test_/)
```
?
