The harness emits exactly one newline-terminated qualified name for each test
|

selected by the command's filters, in descriptor order. If the selected set is
|
||||
empty, the harness emits no list payload, no `[no matches]` sentinel, and no
|

accounting, and returns success; the coordinator still emits the ordinary
|

successful package result. This does not alter non-list execution: a valid
|

filter selecting no tests continues to emit `[no matches]` and the

discovered/selected/started/completed accounting. A retained binary invoked

directly has no coordinator package result.

filter selecting no tests writes exactly

`testing: warning: no tests to run\n` through the harness's standard error,
|

preserves the discovered/selected/started/completed accounting and successful

exit, and causes a successful directory package result to end in

` [no tests to run]`. The coordinator recognizes that exact warning only at

capture byte zero or after a newline. Directory execution combines the warning
|

and accounting in its product-local capture; a retained binary invoked directly
|

keeps the warning on standard error, its accounting on standard output, and has

no coordinator package result.

After those ordered results, an ordinary explicit `ww test` request that records

an attributable setup, build, or execution failure emits exactly one standalone
