Hello, All!

I'm going to perform regression tests in our company
  using Boost Regression Tests framework. I have few
questions about customization of HTML reports.

1. There is table which contains records for each test.
  The table contains Library column which sometimes is
filled and sometimes is not. What is affected the fill
of the column?
Also there is column Test Type which sometimes is empty
  and sometimes is "unknown". Why test type can be unknown
or empty? I expect test type contain one of "run, run-fail,
link, link-fail, and compile, compile-fail values.
How can I fix that the column is always filled?

2. Each row in table with tests has next view:
<tr>
  <td>
   <a href="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/boost/boost/libs/">
   </a>
  </td>
  <td>
   <a 
href="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/*checkout*/boost/boost/?view=markup&rev=HEAD">
autoRegTestsSample
   </a>
  </td>
  <td></td>
  <td>
   <a href="cs-win32-links.html#-autoRegTestsSample-vc7">
    <font color="#FF0000"><i>Fail</i></font>
   </a>
  </td>
</tr>

Can how to customize the links to cvs.sourcefourge.net to point
  somewhere to our place? Is is possible that Boost Regression
Tests automatically fills the target with content? Is there
any documentation at this point?

3. There are few built-in links. E.g. for msvc toolset
  it proposes to re-direct to msdn.microsoft.com site,
the tests explanations are located at address:
compiler_status.html#test-type, the picture is
located in ../boost.png.
Can those links be customized?
