A happy Tinderbox run

OLPC-Tinderbox is a test runner and test result reporting tool. It takes in builds, runs test modules on them, and reports its results (example).

It produces both synthetic measurements on software-only platforms like jhbuild, performance results on actual OLPC hardware, and high-resolution power measurements on specially instrumented hardware.

It is comparable to buildbots such as Titus' olpc buildbot.
