Comment #15 on issue 1208 by pekka.klarck: allow listeners to receive suite, test case and keyword objects as arguments
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=1208
After finishing the last comment I realized that the big changes for how tests are executed internally in RF 2.8 might actually make the proposed new listener API less useful. The new robot.running model objects are likely to not have attributes like status or message anymore. The plan is that these objects themselves would not change at all during execution, but instead results were collected to separate results objects.
These are just vague plans at the moment, but odds are that robot.running is going to change even more than anticipated in above comments. It might really be better to postpone adding the new listener API until we know how robot.running actually looks like in the future.
