I've discussed this with a few folks already. The 'Status.state' naming is inconvenient, but I can't think of a better word to represent this. As for the whole model, I think we shouldn't necessarily restrict this to test results: you could have a license check job, for example. I did consider renaming the model 'services' (this is the terminology the rather sweet 'review.ninja' app uses) but I think 'status' is still perfectly suitable TBH. Thoughts?
