My issue is that about half of my local image tests fail, so its difficult
for me to get a baseline...  If I have local test that fails before I make
changes, I skip those tests and go on...

Instead of having another branch that we need to mess with that will be
polluted with failures, it might be nice to somehow instruct one of the
test servers to build off another branch that we are ready to have tested.
 If that passes, then we can merge it into develop.  That would encourage
people to use branches more often, and may clean up the testing process...
