Ambiguous help text for "fail" checkbox

XMLWordPrintable

      The Help message for the "fail" checkbox currently says:

      "If checked, the build will be failed rather than aborted."

      This can be taken to mean that the build will be allowed to complete, and then be marked as failed. However I'm told that it means:

      "If checked, the build will be marked as failed rather than marked as aborted."

      Perhaps the help text can be updated to make it clearer?
