Maybe this is just me, but I don't find the output of the test-suite
easy to watch while scrolling. This puts some colors in proper places.

  * end-test summaries are in green or red depending on the sucess of
    the tests.
  * errors are in red.
  * skipped tests and other things that tests `say` are in brown (now
    you can _see_ that your testsuite skips some tests on purpose, I
    only noticed recently that I missed part of the environment for
    proper testing).

I'm not 100% sure the test to see if terminal supports color is correct, and
people using emacs shell buffer or alike tools may have better ideas on how to
make it.

and yes, I know that it "depends" upon tput, but if tput isn't available, the
    [ "x$TERM" != "xdumb" ] && tput hpa 60 >/dev/null 2>&1 && tput setaf 1 >/dev/null 2>&1
expression will fail, and color will be disabled.
