Currently there's a bit of a rainbow for many UI elements showing test status. The rainbow encodes the percentage of errors, from orange to red (or green for no errors). This is rather advanced information that ultimately doesn't help that much: one would still have to look at what tests are failing to gain useful information about what the problem is. Additionally, there is very little in the way of showing that tests are still running on a site/branch, and the green markers for running tests are indistinguishable from "all tests completed OK".
This should be simplified:
- red for one or more tests failing
- yellow for tests running
- green for all tests completed and OK
