See the discussion of this request at http://groups.google.com/group
/nunit-discuss/browse_thread/thread/21279aaa01a78001

As a result of the discussion, the request is being changed to ask for a
way to pause execution of the tests, allowing the developer to take
whatever debugging action is needed at that point. The title and
description are being changed accordingly.


** Summary changed:

- GUI runner option to stop upon failure
+ Option to temporarily pause the run from the test code.

** Description changed:

- Feature request.  Add an option to the GUI runner (maybe in Settings) to
- allow the user to specify whether to stop running multiple tests upon
- first failure.  By default the feature would be off.
+ This request is being changed after discussion on our mailing list. The
+ new description is:
  
- This feature would make it easier to debug intermittent failures while
- running integration tests with the GUI runner.
+ Add a method to Assert or TestContext to allow the user to cause the run to be paused while external action is taken. This is a general facility and will make it easier to do a number of things, including:
+  * Taking a dump
+  * Attaching a debugger
+  * Checking the status of external devices

** Changed in: nunit-3.0
