Xerxes reminded me that Omair already has setup something like that for
collecting and displaying results from jtreg and mauve runs:
http://icedtea.classpath.org/~omajid/testing.html
(Although it seems his builder stopped somewhere last month)

It even comes with the python scripts to control the whole thing
(wish I remembered that when I hacked up my quick-and-dirty bash script)
Connecting such reports with some autobuilders and some place to collect
the test results so you can easily compare between runs would indeed be
really cool.

A plain text file with one-line per fail/pass would proably be easiest.
Currently the icedtea builder publishes the whole jtreg JTReport and
JTwork dir including .jti files for the hotspot/langtools/jdk so you can
easily analyze why something failed in that particular build setup.
http://icedtea.classpath.org/builds/icedtea6/test/
But that is not very space efficient (even when compressed).

Cheers,

Mark
