I removed that part, it was a stupid idea. At the moment it's a pure Lua solution. It's divided into two parts. The first part is the database update, Lua runs context on the tests and writes the results to a database (a Lua table stored in a file). For the second part context is run on the database to generate the report from the database. With this database you can display information like “What broke in the last beta”. > Looking at the diffs, many of the differences are really tiny, but > differences exist nevertheless.

You can specify “sensitivity=low|medium|high”, this sets a predefined tolerance for the page difference. I don't see any other option. There is no single value which is sensitive enough, for instance to detect if a footnote is subscripted or not and at the same time tolerant enough not to always mark a fifty page document as “failed”.
