enough to repair the stalled testing.

This kind of thing happens a lot. Would it be possible for the test toolset to check for missing files and report a failed test rather than breaking the whole build?

I think, a more general solution would be to do this for any targets, not just tests.

I like that idea. It would be also great if incorrect format of explicit-failures-markup.xml file won't be treated as fatal error, but rather the whole explicit-failures-markup.xml file would be ignored. -- Best regards, Antony Polukhin
