Getting non-descriptive error messages when running tests (pgTAP)

If I run
supabase db test
supabase db test
and there's an error, I just get
Error: error executing command
Error: error executing command
as output, even with the
--debug
--debug
flag.

According to the pgTAP documentation, a failing test should yield some useful information…

Is this expected behavior? It makes it really hard to figure out what failed.
