+ <longdescription>
+ With the function &#39;Test.Tasty.ExpectedFailure.expectFail&#39; in the provided module
+ &quot;Test.Tasty.ExpectedFailure&quot;, you can mark that you expect test cases to fail,
+ and not to pass.
+
+ This can for example be used for test-driven development: Create the tests,
+ mark them with &#39;Test.Tasty.ExpectedFailure.expectFail&#39;, and you can still push
+ to the main branch, without your continuous integration branch failing.
+
+ Once someone implements the feature or fixes the bug (maybe unknowingly), the
+ test suite will tell him so, due to the now unexpectedly passing test, and he
+ can remove the &#39;Test.Tasty.ExpectedFailure.expectFail&#39; marker.
+
+ The module also provides &#39;Test.Tasty.ExpectedFailure.ignoreTest&#39; to avoid
+ running a test. Both funtions are implemented via the more general
+ &#39;Test.Tasty.ExpectedFailure.warpTest&#39;, which is also provided.
