Hi all, i'm happy to announce the release of pytest-external-blockers [0] it was created in order to be able to semantically track for what reasons a test was skipped
a normal `pytest.skip` doesn't offer a semantic difference between "skipped for a local reason" and "skipped for a external reason" so we choose to pick a new verb. that way every dynamic "skip" that happens for a external reason (like database down, known to be broken tests, unavailable network service) can be identified. In future i want to extend this concept to xfail. I'm hoping for some harsh critique :) [0] https://github.com/RonnyPfannschmidt/pytest-external-blockers https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pytest-external-blockers -- Ronny
