Why we publish the tests that fail

Most companies publish what worked. We run tests on our own products, with our own money at risk, and we publish what comes out, including the runs that went nowhere.

Where a failed test goes

This site has a place for it, at the same weight as everything else. If a test fails, it goes there, dated, with its numbers.

We have not finished one yet, and we say so instead of filling the space.

What is running now

The tests that are running today are listed on the attic. When one finishes, the full result goes up whether it helped us or not.
