but if you do that (give it that name) the build works right?
so then the method isn't executed and its in the deep black hole where
nobody is looking at it again..

failures can happen and if they don't show in the unit test i run (or bamboo
runs)
then i will not notice them and never do anything about it.

about the current one. i think i will comment it out let one build pass and
then enable the failure test
again so that we do have a build for people that are testing against the
snapshots

Mmm actually  I don't really  agree, making the build  fail should
not  be  intentional.  We  could  have  some convention  like  for
example naming  the failing  unit test methods  after bugTestXXX()
instead of testXXX() to make it obvious that the test does not run
and that there is a bug.
