package sbt.testing;

/**
 * Represents the status of running a test. Test frameworks can decided which of these to
 * use and what they mean, but in general, the intended meanings are:
 *
 * 
 * Success - a test succeeded
 * Error - an unexpected error (as opposed to an assertion error) occurred during a test
 * Failure - an assertion failed during a test
 * Skipped - a test was skipped for any reason
 * Ignored - a test was ignored, i.e., temporarily disabled with the intention of fixing it later
 * Canceled - a test was canceled, i.e., not able to be completed because of some unmet pre-condition, such as a database being offline that the test requires
 * Pending - a test was declared as pending, i.e., with test code and/or production code as yet unimplemented 
 * 
 *
 * 
 * JUnit and specs2 differentiate between errors and failures. ScalaTest reports everything (both assertion failures and unexpected errors) as failures.
 * JUnit and ScalaTest support ignored tests. ScalaTest and specs2 support a notion of pending tests. ScalaTest differentiates between ignored and
 * canceled tests, whereas specs2 only supports skipped tests, which are implemented like ScalaTest's canceled tests. TestNG uses "skipped" to report tests
 * that were not executed because of failures in dependencies, which is also similar to canceled tests in ScalaTest.
 *
