Subject: [RFC/PATCH] tests: optionally fail passed todo immediately
Date: Tue, 18 Dec 2012 21:38:20 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7vzk1abnzn.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org> (raw)
Add "--fail-passed-todo" option to stop the test immediately when a
test that is expected to fail succeeds. After seeing the test stop,
the developer can go to the trash directory and inspect why it failed
to fail as expected.
I usually just insert "exit" after such test with an editor, but
an option like this might be easier to use. I dunno.

* Stopping immediately after a test that is failing (and expected
to fail) and then going to the trash directory to inspect the
status of the sandbox are the first two steps I often end up
doing while fixing a bug. It may make sense to add an option to
cause the test to stop at a failure of test_expect_failure, but
that is a separate topic.
