Should be able to skip tests

[marcosnils]

I've been thinking and investigating a bit about this and I can't come up with something like what mocha does:

describe("Test", function() {
   //Tests here will be executed
});
describe.skip("Skipped", function() {
   //Tests here will be skipped
});

What about doing this?

g.Skip("Skipped", func() {
  //Tests here will be skipped
})

Is this feature even useful?. The only thing that it does is just not running everything thats skipped without producing any output at all:

From the mocha documentation:

This is effectively the same as commenting out cases.

Shall we differenciate these skipped tests and notify the reporter about them?.

mmm... I think we shouldn't even bother having Skip. at least until
someone finds a nice use case for this.

Agree.

Closed until it's really necessary.
