I'm not entirely following here. What is the point of even having tests if there are teams out there who disregard their outputs? Freezing a set of parameters that always pass, in case you don't run into the failing edge case, defeats the entire point of testing in the first place. If it's one test that is failing because the test itself is defective, and if that test is not for a crucial part of the product, then skip the test in the interim and come back to it later. But giving it a happy path for success sounds really strange to me.
