Thanks, here's the problem:

It's clear that "grep -c ^[0-9].*OK" will not count all of them (2 are
indeed missing).

We could probably start with "quiet" but that would be against the
principle of using this to troubleshoot issues. I think we just stick
to the current search of "FAIL" and that as long as a success is
reported and the number of successes is within the expected range
that could be OK. At least I guess :-/

Thanks,
