  19. # [09:36] <jgraham> fantasai: Ah right. I think I prefer a test-centric approach. For each test you list the number of browsers failing it and the goal is to take that to zero

  26. # [10:40] <gsnedders> jgraham: How does that avoid comparions though? Surely that doesn't stop people from going x fails 1000 tests, y fails 100, hence y > x.
  27. # [10:56] <jgraham> gsnedders: Well if you really want to avoid that, don't list which browsers fail the test
  28. # [10:57] <jgraham> gsnedders: But simply listing fails and not percentages makes it a non-trivial amount of work to calculate percentages so people probably won't bother
  29. # [10:58] <jgraham> also I expect the unusual "name by fewer tests === better" to confound some people :)
  30. # [10:59] <jgraham> (note I would present things as a list of *tests* with a (number / list of names) per *test* not a list of browsers with a list of tests per browser

  44. # [19:53] <fantasai> jgraham: but if you have to give the marketing people something to chomp on, at least the number failing is a better way to score it than percentage passing, since it's less likely to be misinterpretated as "level of support"
