This paper presents our motivation for organizing the FinE-R workshop at IROS 2015, as well as a summary of all accepted papers. The main workshop goal is to provide an open exchange forum to the robotic community where participants can share their personal failure to success stories. We believe that such exchanges are of tremendous importance for the community as they provide a rich source of knowledge on how to avoid future mistakes with possible high impact. On the other hand, the papers accepted in the workshop give a good overview of different types of errors encountered in the robotic fields. Through deep analysis and clear description of failures, the authors of these papers contribute to a learning process by extracting positive experiences and conclusions from negative results leading ultimately to success.
