           Summary: bugzilla-tool/commit-queue should run new tests first
                    (as well as in their normal place)
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

bugzilla-tool/commit-queue should run new tests first (as well as in their
normal place)

This would allow us to fail even faster than --exit-after-N-failures currently
does.

Say we add a new test "D".  The test order in this mode would be:
D, A, B, C, D, E, F

D is run twice (which tests to make sure that the test is properly idempotent
w/ respect to the test results and allows us to detect the most likely failure
as early as possible.)

I'd be curious if others think this is a good idea.  The same option could be
used on the buildbots as well if desired.
