There are deeper reasons for my position. Take a look at: http://google1.osuosl.org:8011/waterfall the idea is to use the expected state of the testcases to determine if the color should be green or not. The best use of a system like this is when the usual state is green, and any time a red appears, it is turned back to green, in time measures in minutes or hours, not days or years. Now, do you think there is any value add to having a testing system that displays testing results across many platforms on a regular basis like this? If so, how do you propose to decide on wether the color should be green or red?
