thank you, the test results from this location helped me a lot. :-)
I just compared my results to those and more or less know which errors are normal.

Yes, I have also bad experience with the testtool. OpenOffice sometimes hangs
and tests fail on their beginning.

a .res file contains results from more than one test run. (As it was in my case
because I have had to repeat some tests).
