Multi-Run UI Rough Sketch

[jystadj]

This is very rough. :)

Overall idea:
Provide a queue of previous runs that allows you to select one or more of the runs to affect the display of the results. When 2 or more runs are selected colorize the numbers that have changed, red for numbers that have gotten worse and green for numbers that have improved.

Control Additions/Changes:

1. Run Queue - Displayed to the right of the test input field in the included graphic. Includes the ability to delete individual runs and select one or more runs.
2. Clear Results button drop down - Adds the ability to clear the run queue.
3. Results Pane - Improved results are colored green, worsened results are colored red.
4. Colored results hover (Not included in mockup) - When hovering over a colored number in the results pane, display a tool-tip style pop up that lists the results for all of the selected runs in the queue.

It would be a good idea to have the run queue be optional, maybe a check-box to turn it on.

It occurs to me that this would accomplish the stated goals without the delete or multi-select controls in the run queue.
For that matter the delete control should probably be a single control at the top of the run queue and people can just select the runs and then delete them. Less busy UI that way.

Part of me really wants to figure out how to work sparklines into the results pane for change over time. 😄
