It looks great!

Just one thought against the fail-fast approach:
I made a pull request with some server side changes and the tests around 
it weren't executed at all because of failing cli unit tests. In this 
case the test report was not very useful. Is it possible to always run 
all the tests or is it too resource consuming?
