# Skip A Specific Test
|
|
|
|
Elixir's `ExUnit` supports all kinds of tags for customizing the behavior of
|
|
your test suite. The `:skip` tag signals that `ExUnit` should skip over that
|
|
specific test.
|
|
|
|
```elixir
|
|
@tag :skip
|
|
test "this is a test that should not run" do
|
|
assert false
|
|
end
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When you run `mix test`, it will make sure to not execute any tests with the
|
|
`:skip` tag.
|
|
|
|
Using the `:skip` tag can be a great temporary measure in a lot of
|
|
situations. It is not a good long-term practice to keep these around and
|
|
check them in.
