When reporting test failures, could you report *which test* (not just
which files, but which particular assertion they're trying to make) is
failing? It would have saved a lot of time not having to get, compile,
and run them. But now after doing that, I can't even reproduce any
failures; I just get all PASS. So in order to investigate at all I
really need to know what specific failures you hit.
FWIW these are rather dubious tests since they depend on the current
time when the test is run and the user's locale. Perhaps the failures
you saw were dependent on those factors?
