I see that they have a plugin for Eclipse, but I haven't tried it yet.  It
doesn't look like it supports IntelliJ.  On the surface, the conversion and
usage looks doable and would satisfy the "failed testcase" problem.

My question is whether it's worth the effort.  If we have a testcase that
has failures, write appropriate JIRA reports, and comment out the failing
variations until they get resolved.  As part of the JIRA resolution, you
uncomment the failing test variations.

Even if we go with TestNG, it's a similar process.  We discover a problem,
write a JIRA report, and put the testcase in a special group that allows
failures.  When the JIRA report is resolved, we move the testcase to a
regular group where it is not allowed to fail.

My only concern is IDE support and specifically the IDE I use
intellij.  Does this work as a test case type in IntelliJ and Eclipse?

If so, I don't really care which framework we use.
