My peeve is that these summaries are *looooooong*. Taking the length and amount makes it hard to digest them. What I'd like are three things which should also assist casual contributors: A. Instructions to reproduce the tests somewhere on qa.php.net or such, so that when an issue is found I (or anybody else) can reproduce it even their primary development system uses a different setup B. A short summary where I can see, with a single look, whether there's something bad or not. With the current 78K I can scroll over it and still now as much as before. C. have a database with a nice report to get the details. This wish is not limited to your tests, but also the "normal" tests we already have, there https://qa.php.net/reports/ is a good start for reporting, but still so much room for improvement (i.e. trend graphs or "alerts" or something) And to be absolutely clear: I thin it is *great* you're testing this, and *great* you are sharing the results, but I guess currently the results reach some void and we should improve that. johannes
