Originally reported by: Andreas Pelme (BitBucket: pelme, GitHub: pelme)

xdist does not color its output the same way as non xdist invocations to py.test.

See the screen shot for an example run with and without xdist.

Original comment by Ronny Pfannschmidt (BitBucket: RonnyPfannschmidt, GitHub: RonnyPfannschmidt):

the reason is xdist transfering tracebacks as strings instead of something regeneratable

Original comment by holger krekel (BitBucket: hpk42, GitHub: hpk42):

indeed, we need to find a simple enough encoding for the traceback info that allows us to print colored output. Maybe the traceback jrepr should grow an extra attribute that specifies color information (so that the string does not need to get modified and color-unaware tools are not scrambling when reading the information).
