Bug Description

After your test session in Checkbox completes, you are taken to a Test Results screen where you can view which tests failed, or were skipped. You can choose tests to rerun, or just finish the test session, which causes Checkbox to generate the test submission tarball.

If you choose to rerun a test, the output from Checkbox flashes by, and you're returned to the Test Result screen.

It would be nice if the selected test(s) still failed, Checkbox would pause for the user to hit a key before returning to the results screen. This would make it a lot easier for the user to get an idea about why a test failed instead of having to go through the entire log file.

The scrollback feature in the Terminal window is disabled when you are at the Test Result screen so you can't scroll up to see any output, otherwise this would not be an issue.
