It shouldn't be very difficult for your setup, I believe. When I use
quicklisp for testing I distinguish two phases: building the library I want
to test (this may produce errors) and then running the tests themselves
(which produces the output you have right now).

Regressions are indeed very useful, but probably more once the set of
libraries that is working is larger. Right now it would be very useful to
sort the libraries by dependencies: those that other depends on and fail
will likely cause failures on other libraries themselves. Again, that
should be programatically easy to do, given ASDF's tree of dependencies (or
quicklisp's for that matter).
In any case, thanks for the great job you are doing!
