Brent N Atkinson commented on CONTINUUM-2430:
---------------------------------------------

This no longer applied cleanly, but it took very little work to reintegrate. 

Most of the changes improved the page, but I'm not sure about result/buildId change. I will integrate as-is but in certain respects the page is more confusing. While repeating 'Result' was not entirely helpful, it did letting users know what clicking would lead to. Also, with a build id and build number on the page it is less clear what I am looking at or what utility the information is providing.

Considering that the entire point of the page is a list of build results, it might actually make more sense to remove the last column entirely.

> The Build Results summary page wastes quite a lot of space in the Duration column.
> Rather than text such as
> Duration : 1 min 29 sec
> Duration : 1 min 2 sec
> why not have the column heading as "Duration"?
> This would leave more space for something else, for example a column showing the build trigger type, e.g. forced or scheduled.
> Also, the final column contains just the text "Result". 
> It would be more useful if the heading were "Build Id" and the column contents showed the Build Id as the link text.
