I noticed that with a failing test, the user experience is quite noisy (scary!).

Exception in thread "main" org.junit.platform.commons.JUnitException: JUnit run finished with 1 failure

        at org.junit.start@6.1.0-SNAPSHOT/org.junit.start.JUnit.run(JUnit.java:37)

1. Instead of throwing an exception, JUnit.run could exit with System.exit.
2. The tail of the exception is quite noisy. I'd expect the stacktrace to start at HelloTests.stringLength(HelloTests.java:19). Now it starts at HelloTest.main because that is the first method that involves the class (Prune org.junit.start from exceptions junit-framework#5158).
3. The start of the stack trace is also quite noisy. I don't think anything after the first Assertions.assertEquals is useful information. But that is unrelated to the the source launcher. (Trim internal frames from AssertionFailedError junit-framework#5159).

Here, I'd like to keep some detailed information about where the control flow was and where the exception was generated. Hiding too much details hinders to understand which part of the software was in control. So, only pruning extra frames in 1. and 2. that don't contain interesting information is a good thing, while I totally agree with 3.
