Three of us were testing at the same time, running the same search and adding the same results to our lists, in the same order. However, the citations were not in the same order for all our lists. Citations with the same title and author but different year/volume/issue seemed to appear in a random order, not the same in each of our lists.

Ideally, citations would be ordered predictably--in this case, title, author, volume, issue, page (or something like that). Here are the example citations we were working with:
