While I was working on [1] I needed to check what dependencies were missing on Travis environment to build a kernel. The test was coded so that a build failure would cancel the test. As a result, and because all tests pass'ed (or cancel'ed) I could not see the Avocado logs (consequentely not able to check the missing packages). That was the main reason for the Patch 01 in this series. Also it seems pointless to print the log of the tests that pass.
The patch 02 is a tentative to improve the browsing of build vs test logs. Honestly I was expecting that Travis was able to put the output of steps each on toggled text boxes (see the 'before_script' section, each command output has a toggle). But that isn't the behavior of the 'script' section. At least it prints the end of the build command ('The command "BUILD_RC=0 && make -j3 || BUILD_RC=$?" exited with 0.') which can be grep'ed.
