You can't describe how a good friend should be. When making new friends you just feel a special connection that can't be described in words. You just know if you can become friends with the certain person. So you can't ask what you should look for in a person to see if you can become friends with them or not, because you may have a best friend that's tottaly your oppositte though you get along great with her/him. But if you were asking just how we consider our best friend should be like, then I could answer that :)
I don't currently have a best friend, but I'll know when I'll met him/her.
General qualities he/she should have: to be kind (I mean not like those insensible idiots), honest, optimist, more open - minded and willing to accept me as I am. And preferably to share some of my interests and hobbies. It would also be good if she/he would have a better perception of life... to be able to understand me.

A good friend is someone who is always their for you go good or bad times. A person who is loyal and honest and is always willing to correct you whenever you are wrong and will give a honest criticism thats my views thanks.

A good friend is your friend no matter what. Whether you talk everyday or only once in a while. A good friend acts the same regardless of how much time has passed since you last talked. A good friend is non-judgemental, non-abusive, shares your ups and downs. But I must say you need to be a good friend to have a good friend.

For me a good friend is someone whom I can count on for everything; somebody who understands and listens me even w/o giving any unsolicited advises. A real friend is one who accepts you as you are including your flaws and still invites you to grow and one whom you can share your emotions w/ and even w/ your most profound secrets.

A good friend is someoen who listens to you when you need advice. Don't take things for grantet. Is always around through the bad times and good times. calls you just to see how you are doing. Asks if you need anything. Knows everything about you. All this is vice versa as well.
