New issue 1218 by robotframew...@gmail.com: Allow modifying test tags with
`Fail` keyword
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=1218
When using `Fail` keyword to fail a test case, it would sometimes be useful
to be able to modify tests tags. You can already now do that using `Set
Tags` or `Remove Tags` before `Fail`, but being able to do that in a one go
would be even easier, especially if you are failing the test based on a
certain condition.
Prefixing tags with hyphen (e.g. '-regression') ought to be suitable syntax
for removing tags. Tags without a hyphen would be added.
Examples:
# Fail test case unconditionally and add 'not-ready' tag.
Fail Keyword not ready not-ready
# Fail test case based on a condition and remove 'regression' tag.
${env ok} = Verify test environment
Run Keyword If not ${env ok} Fail Environment not OK
-regression
