13   * Register an instance of this class with {@link RunNotifier} to be notified
14   * of events that occur during a test run. All of the methods in this class
15   * are abstract and have no implementation; override one or more methods to
16   * receive events.
17   * <p>
18   * For example, suppose you have a <code>Cowbell</code>
19   * class that you want to make a noise whenever a test fails. You could write:
20   * <pre>
21   * public class RingingListener extends RunListener {
22   *    public void testFailure(Failure failure) {
23   *       Cowbell.ring();
24   *    }
25   * }
26   * </pre>
27   * <p>
28   * To invoke your listener, you need to run your tests through <code>JUnitCore</code>.
29   * <pre>
30   * public void main(String... args) {
31   *    JUnitCore core= new JUnitCore();
32   *    core.addListener(new RingingListener());
33   *    core.run(MyTestClass.class);
34   * }
35   * </pre>
36   * <p>
37   * If a listener throws an exception for a test event, the other listeners will
38   * have their {@link RunListener#testFailure(Failure)} called with a {@code Description}
39   * of {@link Description#TEST_MECHANISM} to indicate the failure.
40   * <p>
41   * By default, JUnit will synchronize calls to your listener. If your listener
42   * is thread-safe and you want to allow JUnit to call your listener from
43   * multiple threads when tests are run in parallel, you can annotate your
44   * test class with {@link RunListener.ThreadSafe}.
45   * <p>
46   * Listener methods will be called from the same thread as is running
47   * the test, unless otherwise indicated by the method Javadoc
48   *
49   * @see org.junit.runner.JUnitCore
50   * @since 4.0
