+<sup>1</sup> Atrium shows a summary up to 10 elements, if the Iterable contains more elements, 
+then only failing expectations are shown.
+
+<details>
+<summary>💬 Show only failing expectations/elements earlier than 10 elements?</summary>
+
+You can use the `report` option to specify when Atrium shall start to show only failing expectations.
+Following an example changing the limit to 3 elements by using `showOnlyFailingIfMoreElementsThan` :
+
+<ex-collection-reportOptions-1>
+
+```kotlin
+expect(listOf(1, 2, 2, 4)).toContainExactly(
+    { toBeLessThan(3) },
+    { toBeLessThan(2) },
+    { toBeGreaterThan(1) },
+    report = { showOnlyFailingIfMoreElementsThan(3) }
+)
+```

+
+Likewise, you can use `showOnlyFailing()` to set the limit to 0 and `showAlwaysSummary()` to set the limit to Int.MAX_VALUE
 
-As side notice, in case you are dealing with large `Iterable` and do not want such a verbose output, 
-then let use know by up-voting https://github.com/robstoll/atrium/issues/292 
-So far the verbose output was always handy for us, but you might have other test cases than we have.
-Also notice, that Atrium will not deal with infinite `Iterable`s, i.e. you need to use `take(100)` or the like first.
