Comment #4 on issue 964 by [email protected]: WARN test result
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=964

Though WARN seems little unusual, What is the harm in having WARN?

This could be very handy in rare scenarios where the automation engineer does not want to pass/fail the test, like the current situation we have in our project. We have a keyword that is partially implemented and it will take more time to complete it, however the test designers can still use the test case in their tests to verify if it is failing. If it executes successfully I not want to pass/fail it, but want to distinguish it with a different test status.

One more reason for suggesting WARN is - all leading commercial automation tools have the capability of reporting Pass/Fail/Warn, we may have many more test status too. But I fee three of these are critical.
