Would making the color of expected failures something that's not green (everything's okay) and not yellow or red (something's broken) work for you? That would be useful for me, because I'm noticing that for certain compilers the number of expected failures in the Graph lib is approaching the number of tests... but that's not obvious at first glance.
Yes, this would be good enough. I wasn't sure whether this would be OK with everyone else; there's probably a reason for making expected failures and passes the same color.
I can't think of any compelling reason to have them the same color, though I guess the "all-green" detailed summary could give one warm fuzzies that you wouldn't get with grey expected failures...
The "warm fuzzies" were actually the original reason for their current coloring :).
but I'd much rather have grey expected failures so users can know what works and what doesn't at a glance.
Note that eventually (soon, I hope) we will have a "User View" specifically tailored to user needs. This aside, grey has grown on me as well. -- Aleksey Gurtovoy MetaCommunications Engineering
