My two cents. I parse the text file and generate html that is appropriate for my work, for example, separating out the failures. But I preserve the text file as it has information, e.g., on test order. HTML and XML can make the file harder for me to parse into a format useful to my work. I also run the IntelMPITEST suite that generates XML. I can and do parse it but it can take more work. A benefit it provides is a greater amount of output from the individual test. The XML tags make cutting that out when not needed easier. Then again, I always need the corresponding XSL file to allow a reasonable display and then only through a browser. If the output is made available in new formats, I vote that the text one be retained as well and that the new ones add more than just reformatting.
