@Ignore unit tests immediately if they fail! | Javalobby

In development teams, there is often discussion about using the @Ignore tag for failing tests.

In particular, developers who are very enthusiastic about writing unit tests often tend to be very dogmatic about it. They argue, "A test should never be ignored! It’s better to have the build server on Yellow if tests fail. That way we always have an overview of our problems and are forced to fix them!"

What might sound good at first is not a good idea, at least when it comes to large development teams.
