[GNC-dev] Report System Rework

Hi, this takes up a discussion with John and Christopher in PR#360 (and I am happy to see that is was merged :-D ) As the discussion turned away from the actual proposal of a test for the report definition, I'd suggest to move it to this channel. John: You were mentioning that you and Chris

Hi John, I transfer this thread to this channel because I think this is not PR specific but more a general issue. Let me start by saying that I do not want to "fight to get it merged". For me it is an interesting point to exchange views upon. It is specifically about "We're not merging fail

Re: [GNC-dev] merging failing tests

Thanks for all your comments. @John, Geert: Thanks for bringing the expectations to the point that unit tests as such and especially on master/maint always must pass. I also get the point that further refinement of the test results by utilitzing the verdicts "xpass" and "xfail" is not desired.
