[Qgis-developer] Failing tests consider blockers

[Filipe Dias]

Hi

About regressions, I agree with the current guidelines. From the user's
perspective, regressions are extremely annoying. It is very frustrating to
be used to a tool that suddenly stops working in a new version. Depeding on
the severity of the regression, it can even discourage the adoption of a
new version.

Cheers
