On the page titled "In what order are automation rules and Apex triggers processed (https://help.salesforce.com/HTViewSolution?id=000005694&language=en_US)", the helptext states "Workflow field updates that run based on an approval process or time-dependent action do not trigger any rules."
I know that WFRs will not trigger validation rules, which is well documented.
The text on this page leads me to believe that triggers, assigment rules, and escalation rules would also be excluded, and am curious if anyone in the community can support / reject that.
Thanks

Thanks David – that’s really helpful.
One note - in regards to field updates, the docs are clear that those will not trigger validation rules:
“Because updates to records based on workflow rules don’t trigger validation rules, workflow rules can invalidate previously valid fields.”
