You are right, my fault. Fact is that having eliminated combine_results 
method I now combine values using '&&' (or 'and'), which in turn 
performs a short-circuit evaluation ==> if the failing test is in the 
first group combined through '&&' the second group will never be evaluated.

I start thinking that combine_results cannot be avoided...

Thanks again.
