i am still working through all the examples in the docs from time to time t=
o provide some decent examples for our inhouse developers (as can be seen h=
ere http://github.com/phoet/buildr-examples)
and yesterday i was looking into the testing chapter...

there is no usecase that i can think of for this enhancement. i would alway=
s prefer putting @Ignore annotations directly in my tests instead of changi=
ng the build!

btw: "But=3D" in line 3 of the chapter

kind regards,
peter
