$scenario->skip() does not stop execution of Cept

[Naktibalda]

<?php 
$I = new FunctionalTester($scenario);
$I->wantTo('skip this test');

$scenario->skip();
sleep('10');

My expectation is that the skip() will be parsed before execution and the test will not be executed.
Changelog of 2.1.1 says Skipped and Incomplete tests won't fire test.before and test.after events.
Do I have to use return after $scenario->skip()?

$scenario->skip();
return;

Actually it should work on parsing:

I don't know why it doesn't work in your case.

Anyway, I'd rather close this issue, as $scenario->skip is about to be removed in 2.2 and is deprecated now

Update: $scenario->skip() was not removed and it works in a better way now, because it throws exception, so the code below it is not executed.
