My feeling is since it can be done to some extent using testsfailed filters, I'd rather see development on things we can't do. The NOTCONTAINS arguement has simplified these COMBO filters so most only take one filter to perform.

I would like to be able to group tests together and give a weight to the group rather than the individual tests. That way if one or multiple tests fail, only one weight is added. This would give us a lot more flexibility in the weighting scheme and would address such issues as mailers listed on multiple DUL lists, or mailers that are blacklisted on multiple lists. We then start to structure weighting more around the class of test rather than the quality of individual tests, allowing lots of BLs to be used that may contain duplicates, but have a few listings that others don't, without pushing the weight up further than it should. I realize others have found a workaround for the multiple DUL issue by using custom filters, but I believe this would give much more overall flexibility. Note that it also implies AND and OR functionality: AND with weight aggregation, and OR with tests within a group. I realize this is a major change, but believe it would be well worth it. Thoughts?
