I think it depends on what is important to you.

Do you have kids?
Do you do any sports with your dogs?
Do you have cats?
Territorial? Any resource guarding?

When I've fostered I've looked for
1) Reactions to strangers while out
2) Reactions to ppl entering the house
3) Cats
4) Kids
5) Resource guarding
6) Crate trained
7) Any training - this would be the least important to me if I was adopting
8) How quickly they learned
9) Reactions to moving objects like bikes, cars, lawn mowers

And a whole lot of other stuff that you just notice at the time.
