It definitely delivers the important basics. I could spin a nice wishlist for you, but it looks OK. > Another new feature in CTest/CDash development heads which may be of interest > to Boost is support for subproject labeling.

Room for improvement: * I think we'd want a view that's limited to issues, so a subproject doesn't show up if it's all green (or has only warnings, configurable according to project). See http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/issues.html * It doesn't make good use of space in my browser window unless I make the browser really narrow. It would take some design work, but it would be good to be able to get a bigger picture view at a glance, especially when the browser window is large. * It's kinda ugly, but I suppose we can tweak the CSS ourselves. * It should use JavaScript to allow drilling down without rebuilding the whole screen, ala https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/browser > Trilinos is a very large project, so they label pieces of it in CMake, > CTest propagates the labels with failure reports, and CDash interprets > the labels to break results down by subproject.
