TestNG haltOnSkipped is broken

[jmoore]

For some unexplained (and possibly unexplainable) reason, the testng ant task has this for the haltOnSkipped setter:

   public void setHaltOnSkipped(boolean value)
   {
     m_haltOnSkipped = true;
   }

Ha! Therefore, currently all builds run without "quick" will fail with the error, "There are SKIPPED tests". This is a problem. Several possible solutions:

1. (Short-term) Use java omero quick build when you want all artifacts.
2. Simply get all the tests to pass (working on this anyway).
3. Get TestNG to fix this. (working on that, too).

r677 includes a patched testng jar which sets m_haltOnSkipped = value. Now, by default failing & skipped tests will still allow for a passing build. This will change. After that, using quick or -Dfail.on.error=false (or similar) will be necessary. Stay tuned.

Now fixed in TestNG CVS. See http://jira.opensymphony.com/browse/TESTNG-74
