Exactly. After seing it I personally get an impression that Boost is not working in general, which of course is not true.
Is it easily possible to show the fraction of tests and/or platforms that pass?
(However I accept that the requirements are different for libraries will zillions of tests compared to those with few).

4. Or more graphically. The cells for failures probably could be divided into 2 colors vertically. The height of the yellow/orange bar inside a cell could indicate the percentage of the failures (with 4 possible heights: <=25%, <=50%, <=75% and <=100%). With this we could put the name of the most significant failure in the cell. This could be nice actually but it's hard to predict how clear would it be. It requires some testing.
This could look more or less like on the following picture (I hope it's ok to send images embedded in the email on the Boost list): Regards, Adam
