Hi Dean,

Thank you for your patch. I agree with Patrick on this one. The overall 
result is indeed obtained by doing max on the results, which would yield 
the maximum severity found. Technically speaking we could indeed say 
that SKIP is less severe or important than PASS.

If we have a test suite with only SKIP the max will be SKIP, if we have 
a test suite with SKIP and PASS, the max will be PASS.

The rest of the logic would remain unchanged, meaning that if we have 
SKIP, PASS, FAIL, then the max will still be FAIL.

Therefore, I agree that the solution to this is as simple as re-ordering 
the IntEnum, by swapping SKIP and PASS.

Best,
Luca
