Short answer, no, use junit formatter in addition to TAP.

Long answer - TAP is just a reporter format when running tests. While the output is very readable, it looses out on a lot of details that other formatters provide (viz junit xml). The junit xml format allows encoding of test timings, standard out and error, error traces etc, and is almost universally supported by every test framework. Junit xml happens to be the format that GoCD works best with.
