I'm planning to design a data collection API for Gallio in an upcoming
release that might help here.

However for now what might work best would be for your test to just maintain
a tally of the observations and output some statistics to the log to help
you understand what happened.

One good trick would be to print a "." for each passing sample and an "X"
for each failure.  Then if you see ".......XXXXX....." you can tell that the
failures were clustered.

Subject: MbUnit Visualizing errors in collections of data


I frequently run test points where I collect the ouput data every 25ms for 5
seconds and test for any anomalies so I am expecting roughly 200 data points
where I expect the same result.  I use the approximately equal assertion
since there are filters applied to the output data.
Using the multiple assertions attribute and writing my own assertion method
I am able to count the errors and successful results and record it in the
test report as only one failure so as not to clutter the report.  What I am
wondering is if there is a simple way to visualize the errors in the
collection.  For example I quite often end up with something like Failed 40
out of 200 but without recording all of that data I can not tell if it was
the first 40 or the last 40 or intermittently throughout.  I was thinking
something similar to the navigation stripes in the html test reports only
embedded for individual assertions.
