Annotation Type NotYetImplemented

@Documented
@Retention(RUNTIME)
@Target(METHOD)
public @interface NotYetImplemented
Method annotation used to invert test case results. If a JUnit 3/4/5 test case method is annotated with @NotYetImplemented, the test will fail if no test failure occurs and it will pass if a test failure occurs.

This is helpful for tests that don't currently work but should work one day, when the tested functionality has been implemented.

Note: JUnit 3 users should use the optional exception attribute, e.g. @NotYetImplemented(exception=junit.framework.AssertionFailedError) or the legacy groovy.transform.NotYetImplemented annotation.

Since:
3.0.0
