is duplicated by ZBX-12276 Action status showing "Failures" inde... Reopened

 Description   

Consider the following use case:
Two actions are created - one is valid (will be executed with no error), other fails all the time.
In problem section they will be displayed like that:

This made me thinking that both of my actions are in a failed state as there are counter next to status "failures".

I suggest to change this numeric output to two values for failed actions like that: "Failures 1/2" or "Failures 1 of 2" to avoid confusion.

The same problem is with "In progress" actions:

How about simply "Failed: 1" ?

I think it's good to know how many there were so I'd vote for "Failed 1/2".

also keep in mind the way this would look with another action in progress (there might be 3 states displayed)

I would say that the best solution is to display all the numbers next to each other (as there are not so many states for action), highlight them with different colors and provide hints so you can lookup the meaning of the number / color. Similar approach is used in the dashboard:
