Agree, 
that could also be extended for including more detailed 
information about the tests, like:

- number of iterations performed
- execution time
- precision in results
- sensibility to variation in parameters.

That will probably require to group tests in families
of related methods, which is desirable also for an 
eventual Validation Dashboard.
