I'm juggling code branches that were partly done a few months ago, with intertwined dependencies. So the easiest way to move forward is to mark failing tests on a particular branch as pending (the rspec way) or to be skipped, and deal with them after everything has been merged in.
In its final report, behave reports the number of tests that passed, the # failed, the # skipped, and the # untested (which are non-zero when I press Ctrl-C to abort a run). So behave as a concept of skipped tests. How do I
access that?
You can use predefined "@skip" tag for the scenarios or features that you would like to skip and behave will automatically skip testing the scenario or the whole feature.
How do I skip a test in the behave python BDD framework?
