I can't think of any compelling reason to have them the same color, 
though I guess the "all-green" detailed summary could give one warm 
fuzzies that you wouldn't get with grey expected failures... but I'd 
much rather have grey expected failures so users can know what works 
and what doesn't at a glance.
