Description Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2004-10-20 15:12:22 EDT
Permit stopping and starting a test case execution without loosing state.

When test suites are executed by more than one tester or a tester want to run a 
test suite between two machines or points in time and since execution results 
cannot be merged, the user should be able to stop and restart a test suite 
execution.  As such, providing functionality to execute test suites with 
partially completed execution results.

Comment 16 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2009-06-30 06:28:18 EDT
As of TPTP 4.6.0, TPTP is in maintenance mode and focusing on improving quality by resolving relevant defects and increasing test coverage through test creation, automation, Build Verification Tests (BVTs), and expanded run-time execution. As such, TPTP is not delivering enhancements. As part of the TPTP Bugzilla housecleaning process (see http://wiki.eclipse.org/Bugzilla_Housecleaning_Processes), this enhancement is resolved as WONTFIX. For this enhancement to be considered, please re-open with an attached patch including the Description Document (see http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/documents/process/development/description_documents.html), code (see http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/documents/resources/TPTPDevGuide.htm), and test cases (see http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/documents/process/TPTP_Testing_Strategy.html).
