/ Innovimax SARL <innovimax@gmail.com> was heard to say:
| Hum....for debugging reason, I would be pleased to FORCE the ouput of
| the step (when waiting for it to be fully implemented for example)
A step that hasn't been implemented will cause the pipeline to fail,
so you can't get the result I think you intend.
| Why can't we allow that in the declare step ?
I see two problems with allowing a fixed, default output on declare-step?
1. I don't know of any use cases for it
2. As an implementor, making all of the steps of a particular type have
the same fixed output looks fairly tricky.
It seems like a feature that would only ever be used in test suites :-)
Be seeing you,
norm
