Skipping tests

A skipped/paused test will not be built into the plan, regardless of whether there is enough information available to perform it.

DELETE requests are skipped by default to prevent mistakes, your configuration will need to use dynamic examples to avoid the logical conflicts and race conditions enabling DELETEs will cause.

When to skip tests

You may want to skip tests for many reasons, including,

• To refine the scope/purpose of the suite
• To refine a suite's baseline pass rate
• If credentials cannot provide full access to examples
• If you disagree with a result

Skipping tests will not delete existing results, the updated skips are just considered by the plan.

How to skip tests

Operations can always be skipped (or paused) in the "Refinement" or "Examples" pages.

Test signatures can be skipped on the "Refinement" page when a test has already been conducted belonging to the signature.
