Description

  • Ignore a test method.
  • You do not have to comment out the source code for the method. 
  • Annotating the method with @Ignore will cause the test to be regarded as a passing test, although it will not actually be run.

Examples

In the following example, the failure-id attribute notes for the programmer's benefit what failure ID is expected.

 

@Ignore

@Ignore(

reason:'Throwaway test',

failure-id: 'FORCED_FAILURE'

)

@Test

ignoreFailure()

{

log(

message: 'Annotated with failure',

log-file-name: 'test_me.log',

log-classifier: 'anyClassifier'

);

fail(

message:'Failure message',

failure-id: 'FORCED_FAILURE'

);

}

 

In the CLI, the test will show both Passed and Ignored.
