I think the easiest way to "be sure" is to check the exit status
of 'make test'. I often use a little tool that checks the exit
status of the last command, and beeps once for success and twice
for failure, so I can hear (e.g., from the coffee machine) when
and how things finish. :-)

The "false" positives should either end with "Done demonstrating
bugs on <foo> repositories..." or have "Failed (TODO) test" in
them.
