Using tags in Scenarios of Cucumber/Calabash

Examples:

I run cucumber with various combinations of the following tags:
  –tags @this_one  (used as a short-term tag so that I can run only specific scenario(s))
  –tags ~@known_to_pass   (skip all scenarios that I know always pass, so that I can concentrate on tests that always or sometimes fail
  –tags ~@known_to_fail  (as above, also I can do a File Search/grep for “known_to_pass”/”known_to_fail” and update my boss on the state of the project/test cases
  –tags @BUG_XYZ (run/locate/count all scenarios related to a specific bug/issue)
  –tags @skip  (skip all scenarios that are known to fail and cause subsequent test cases to fail)
  –tags @ios –tags ~@android  (run only scenarios that apply to iPhone/iPad, but not to Android)
  –tags @wip (run scenarios in progress)
  –tags @debug (run scenarios that I want debug)
and you can create yours 🙂

  3. Hey would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using? I’m planning to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a difficult time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
