Understood -- I know it's a lot more work to develop careful error
correction. Though it might be fairly easy and worthwhile to throw a
specific exception when packages aren't installed, and if that exception
happens, mark those tests skipped rather than failed.

In the UI, it would be helpful to the user to know it's okay to click
Skip. When I started, it showed me a list of tests, and I tried to turn
off tests I knew were irrelevant (like firewire), but it gave me a
warning that if I turned off any tests at all, my results wouldn't be
uploaded.  So I was very reluctant to click Skip, and even now am not
sure whether Skipping a few tests invalidated my results.
