Thanks for the work on this, @mostafasoufi ! I'm not merging this right now, as we're currently in discussions about the future of this script in general, and whether we might want to switch the entire testing flow over to something like wp-env. I'll keep you updated in here. |

This PR improves the existing Bash script by making it more human-readable and providing better user interaction through the following changes:
Color-Coded Output: Utilizes tput to introduce colored feedback for errors, progress updates, and successful operations.
Progress Feedback: Each major step (WordPress installation, test suite setup, and database management) now provides clear and distinct feedback to the user.
Confirmation for Database Recreation: The script prompts the user to confirm before deleting and recreating an existing test database, ensuring safer operation.
This enhancement will significantly improve the user experience when running the script by making the outputs more readable and informative.
