For many pipeline executions, we have various means of validation (manual or automated) where we may determine that completing the execution isn't wanted. Currently, Harness treats these executions as failed executions. These executions should simply be omitted from metrics, since a deployment was never attempted. Support pointed out that if a manual approval step is "rejected", that the execution doesn't count as a failure but there is no way to accomplish this without manual intervention which isn't ideal. Treating aborted executions as failed deployments renders DORA metrics useless.
