        Summary: Rerun failed tests

Comment #5 on issue 702 by pekka.klarck: Rerun failed tests
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=702

Bad news:
RF 2.6 is delayed until later this spring so it will take a bit more time before this feature is in.

Good news:
As part of mailing list discussion Mikko wrote a simple script that creates an argument file with failed tests collected from an output file [1]. A limitation of that script was that it didn't work well when there was test with same name multiple times -- in practice all of them would be executed. RF 2.5.6 supports specifying tests to run with their long names (issue 757) so this limitation can be lifted. I just did that and the enhanced version of Mikko's script is attached. It uses long names with RF 2.5.6 or never (also trunk version) and normal names with older. I hope this script is useful until we get rerun support into the framework itself.
