FWIW my 1c to make someone pay 1$ (in proportion of time to be spent to actually do it): yeah, with nosetests it was possible to exclude in the command line... on a quick google I didn't find for pytest (not that it doesn't exist), but started to wonder if indeed would be better to provide a patch (to upstream) for tests which are known to be failing on specific architectures, something like @known_to_fail_on(archs=['armel', ...]) @known_to_fail_on_bigendian @known_to_fail_on_nonx32 see https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/skipping.html#id1 on how to establish those for now based on skipif . "For now", since ideally there should be an easy way to trigger another behavior -- test which tests known to fail before now pass. (we have got something like that in datalad now for demarkating tests which fail atm with v6 of git-annex repo) upstream actually already has some tests marked up: pandas/tests/indexes/test_interval.py: @pytest.mark.skipif(compat.is_platform_32bit(), pandas/tests/io/json/test_pandas.py: @pytest.mark.skipif(is_platform_32bit(), pandas/tests/io/json/test_ujson.py: @pytest.mark.skipif(compat.is_platform_32bit(), pandas/tests/io/json/test_ujson.py: @pytest.mark.skipif(compat.is_platform_windows() and not compat.PY3, # and here comes a demo of the cool -p switch for git grep: $> git grep -p skip.*endian pandas pandas/tests/frame/test_constructors.py=class TestDataFrameConstructors(TestData): pandas/tests/frame/test_constructors.py: pytest.skip("known failure of test on non-little endian") pandas/tests/io/test_pickle.py=def test_pickles(current_pickle_data, version): pandas/tests/io/test_pickle.py: pytest.skip("known failure on non-little endian") -- Yaroslav O.
