I attempted the same size reduction. Therefore I know that
this should to be either

 	printf " %-4s" "[$(($test_count - 1))]"
or
 	printf "\t%-4s" "[$(($test_count - 1))]"

(or something similar) so that there is space betweem BROKEN and [num]

This takes 4 bytes out from width (and drops tab as field separator)
(and only few lines goes over 80 char width (some goes even with this
reduction). So ...
