I find the gigantic swing of a lot of software developers from the pure separation of data and styling into notebooks rather amusing.
In particular, there is very little that a "notebook" style environment can get you that you couldn't have gotten as output from any previous testing regime. Styling test results used to be a thing people spent a fair amount of time on so that test reports were pretty and informative. Reports on aggregate results could show trends in how they have been executing in the past.
Now, I grant that this article is subtly different. In particular, the notebooks are an artifact that they are testing anyway. So, having more reliance on that technology may itself be a good end goal. I still have a hard time shaking that notebooks are being treated as a hammer looking for nails by so many teams.
