In my functional tests (with Symfony3, Codeception 2.1.7 and PHPUnit 5.2.10) the skipped tests (invoked with $scenario->skip) are shown in the following way when I run php vendor/bin/codecept run:
Example test (ExampleCest::test) Skipped
But at the end of the output, after time & memory statistics, the following additional output pops up:
There were 2 skipped tests:
---------
1)
---------
2)
It seems unnecessary to show skipped tests again at this point, and even more senseless is the utter lack of information - no name or hint, even if I try to give the tests a name ($I->wantTo) or comment ($scenario->comment). Is there a way to improve the codeception output - remove the last paragraph, or at least add some useful information?
This issue is fixed in the master branch, so Codeception 2.2 will display skipped tests correctly. https://github.com/Codeception/Codeception/issues/2654
You can get some useful information by running Codeception with -v or --debug parameters.
