Bug Description
Reading the docs at read the docs says in the launcher tutorial:
type
Type of UI to use. This has to be set to interactive, silent, converged, or converged-silent. Default value: interactive, which runs the Checkbox command line version. Note: the converged and converged-silent UI types will launch the QML interface and requires checkbox-converged to be installed on your system. Note: using silent or converged-silent UI types requires forcing test selection and test plan selection.
One would presume "silent" would cause the UI to produce NO output. Thus I set it up like so:
[ui]
type = silent
output = hide
but the type = seems to be ignored by checkbox-ng as it displays a lot of output during testing.

@Jeff
I understand that you suggest that 'silent' type should produce only the return code (and reports on the filesystem if any).
