I'm still rather puzzled.  My pull request remains with 8 tests 
pending after several hours.  I can't find any confirmation on 
the pulls display 
https://auto-tester.puremagic.com/pulls.ghtml?projectid=1 that it 
intends to run the tests.   Surely being listed in the "Old 
results" table doesn't imply pending runs against a new SHA, 
otherwise why would there be entries there dated 2017?
