[Improve] Default width for the title column about monocart-reporter HOT 7 CLOSED

@edumserrano @Aroot42 Thank you for the suggestions about the title width.
Percentage width should not work, because it is not a simple table.
I agree that the default width of title should takes as much space as possible. This should be possible if do some calculations. let me do some research first.

the column width is customizable

// playwright.config.js
module.exports = {
    reporter: [
        ['monocart-reporter', {  
            name: "My Test Report",
            outputFile: './test-results/report.html',

            // custom columns
            columns: (defaultColumns) => {

                // find title column
                const titleColumn = defaultColumns.find((column) => column.id === 'title');
                titleColumn.width = 500;
                titleColumn.maxWidth = 2000;

            }
        }]
    ]
};

I saw that on the docs, you are right. My request was to try and make the default more user friendly.
Could the default try to be set using the above logic?

Because the problem is I don't know what fixed width to use. That would change depending on how the test titles change. I could just keep updating the fixed width, that's a solution indeed. I was trying to see if the report could have a better default for the title column.

The title width is 300 by default. What do you think the default width should be?
Maybe we can't find a most suitable default width, because users can view the report on their mobile phones.

Maybe you should think about stretching all the columns to 100% of the width of the screen, and setting the width of the columns to %?

My suggestion was:

if possible, make it so that the default width for the title column takes as much space as possible in attempt to display all titles without cropping. So in my test case it should look like this by default:

So the rules would be:

1. find the max column width the title column could have. This might vary depending on screen resolution and number of columns in a report.
2. find the test title with the longest width
3. try to make the title column have enough width to display the largest title
4. if the column with for the largest title is higher than the max column width then set the it to the max column width.

As @Aroot42 pointed out this might be something that can be achieved with some CSS instead of having to do any calculations. The above rules were just to explain my reasoning.

Tested on version 1.6.33 and it's working as expected.

Thank you @cenfun 🎉
