<h3>IgnoreAttribute (NUnit 2.0)</h3>
<p>The ignore attribute is an attribute to not run a test or test fixture for a
period of time. The person marks either a Test or a TestFixture with the Ignore
Attribute. The running program sees the attribute and does not run the test or
tests. The progress bar will turn yellow if a test is not run and the test will
be mentioned in the reports that it was not run.</p>
<p>This feature should be used to temporarily not run a test or fixture. This is a
better mechanism than commenting out the test or renaming methods, since the
tests will be compiled with the rest of the code and there is an indication at
run time that a test is not being run. This insures that tests will not be
forgotten.</p>
