Public bug reported: The name "EXPECTED_FAILURE()" is a bit confusing, as it could imply a negative test. It should not be used for negative tests, however; it is only for those tests that are failing due to a known, filed-but-as-yet- unfixed bug.
I propose renaming this to KNOWN_BUG(). EXPECTED_FAILURE() could be kept as a deprecated synonym for the time being. ** Affects: zorba Importance: Medium Status: New ** Changed in: zorba Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Zorba Coders, which is the registrant for Zorba. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/990119 Title: Rename EXPECTED_FAILURE() to KNOWN_BUG() Status in Zorba - The XQuery Processor: New Bug description: The name "EXPECTED_FAILURE()" is a bit confusing, as it could imply a negative test.
