This sounds reasonable. It seems to me that TAP::Formatter::Console::Session
somewhere should have a line like:
if ( $parser->skip_all ) {
$formatter->_output( '# SKIP: ' . $parser->skip_all );
}
Or something like that.
However, TAP::Parser doesn't seem to have a &skip_all method (returning boolean
or explanation? What if no skip reason given?). I was also going nuts trying
to figure out where I'd put the tests for this. I feel like I've lagged far
behind in TAP::Parser development :(
