skippy¶ ↑

A little Test::Unit/minitest extension to only run long running (or whatever) tests when given an environment variable.

Usage¶ ↑

# Wrap a whole test in skip
skip do
  def test_this_thing
    # test goes here...
  end
end

# ...or use inside of tests
def test_other_thing
  skip do
    long_running_operation(:here)
    assert @things_about_it
  end

  other_piece!
  assert true
end

# run without env var...
rake test
# ...and tests are skipped.

# run *with* env var...
SKIP_OFF=true rake test
# ...and tests are not skipped.

Note on Patches/Pull Requests¶ ↑

• Fork the project.

• Make your feature addition or bug fix.

• Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.

• Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)

• Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
