SkipTestException

[sksamuel]

Should we support skipling a test by thowing this exception like junit.

[LeoColman]

Something like @Expected?

[sksamuel]

I don't know what @expected is.
I just mean inside a test you can throw SkipTestException and instead of failing, it acts like the test is ignored.

[LeoColman]

Ah, I see...
I've never seen a test with this, but I don't think it will be hard to implement

[LeoColman]

Reviving this issue:

Do we actually need this? Would this be useful to any of our users? I don't see this as being really necessary, as it's not very different from a return inside a test, is it?

Tell me if we need this, or if we can close this issue for now.

[sksamuel]

I suppose you can just return yeah so close away. Although other test frameworks have it. Maybe they found a reason for it.

You can include a reason if you use an exception.

I mean, it's very easy to implement, I just want to see if we want it. Perhaps it's so easy to implement that we can just do it xD

[sksamuel]

Yeah can do, as in the exception you can include a message which is then displayed as the skip reason in the output.
