People who run stable won't see test failures, because developers and arch testers and ~arch users will all have run the tests already and made sure there aren't any failures. And if there *are* failures that make it past all three levels of checking before stable, they really need to be investigated -- chances are they're showing a legitimate problem. -- Ciaran McCreesh
