I am setting up some regression testing where I expect the command to
fail (actually that is what I am testing). How do you force mk to
ignore the return status of a command it is running and continue running
the target body?
As a note, I read through all the mk attributes and could see none that
made sense or that I could get to work.

false || echo 'failed'
as opposed to:
true || echo 'fail'

doesn't the E attribute work for you?

I misunderstood the definition of recipe... Oh well. That work better
than "|| echo failed..."
Thanks
