I assume I'm supposed to be looking here [1] and here [2]. I have a
few questions about what I'm seeing:
1. At [1], I see a number of yellow "fail" boxes. The legend describes
this as "failure on a newly added test/compiler". Should I be worried
about these?
2. At [2], I see that Boost.Range has "issues": the 'type_erased' test
is failing (in yellow colour) on a number of testers. Looking back
at [1], I see those yellow boxes under 'type_erased' and the
corresponding testers, but I also see yellow boxes under other tests,
which do not show up as issues in [2]. What makes 'type_erased'
special that its failure causes an "issue", but not the failure of
other tests?
3. Is there a way to look at older test results, so that I can compare
test results from before my commit to test results from after my
commit, so that I can see whether my commit specifically broke
anything?
Thanks!
Nate
