Subject: Hook into rake for reporting results

Hi,

I'm building an integration tool between software projects and issue
trackers. What would be the best way to report test success/failures
from a ruby project?

I would need to be able to individually identify which tests
failed, passed, or are pending (success on expected failures and fail if
passing on an expected failure).
I would also like to have minimal modifications if I wanted to add this
tool to an existing ruby project.
A report could either be written to a file or execute custom code to
interact with another software package.

From what I have found, it would be best to hook into the rake system
either via a custom runner or formatter. There isn't too much
documentation on either of these so I'm not sure if this is the right
way.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
