New issue 607: pytest.skip will skip entire files when used as a decorator
https://bitbucket.org/hpk42/pytest/issue/607/pytestskip-will-skip-entire-files-when
Bryce Lampe:
I've seen several people assume that `@pytest.skip` can be used in place of
`@pytest.mark.skipif(True, reason="foo")`. It seems like a reasonable
convenience and it *seems* to work. However, this is actually quite dangerous
because it has the unexpected side-effect of skipping every test in the file:
```
$ cat test.py
import pytest
@pytest.skip
def test_1():
print 1
def test_2():
print 2
def test_3():
print 3
```
Expected behavior:
```
$ py.test test.py -v
============================= test session starts ==============================
platform darwin -- Python 2.7.8 -- py-1.4.25 -- pytest-2.6.3 --
/Users/blampe/env/bin/python2.7
collected 2 items
test.py::test_2 PASSED
test.py::test_3 PASSED
=========================== 2 passed in 0.01 seconds ===========================
```
Actual behavior:
```
$ py.test test.py -v
============================= test session starts ==============================
platform darwin -- Python 2.7.8 -- py-1.4.25 -- pytest-2.6.3
collected 0 items / 1 skipped
========================== 1 skipped in 0.00 seconds ==========================
```
Note that this is reporting the wrong number of skipped tests, so this
definitely seems unintentional.
