Nowadays, there are the following keywords added, in Robot Framework: Skip and Skip if

Ideally, tests that should not be run should be excluded from the run using tags or other means. Another option is to still run the tests, but simply check for your skip condition at the start of the test and pass the test without executing anything. There are two keywords, Builtin.Pass Execution and Builtin.Pass Execution If, useful for that.

  • By file location, file name, and by test suite and test case names: http://robotframework.org/robotframework/latest/RobotFrameworkUserGuide.html#selecting-test-cases – ombre42 Dec 29 '15 at 16:16

    There is no skipped test status yet in Robot Framework. Check out https://github.com/robotframework/robotframework/issues/2087 – ombre42 Dec 30 '15 at 14:57

    If you used Pass Execution to skip your tests, you can pass an optional SKIP tag at the end so that the case will be tagged as SKIP in the log/report. Eg: Pass Execution Skipping this test SKIP. Here SKIP is the tag that will be added to this test case and it will show up in your log/report as a tag.

  • Thank you for contributing to the Stack Overflow community. This may be a correct answer, but it’d be really useful to provide additional explanation of your code so developers can understand your reasoning. This is especially useful for new developers who aren’t as familiar with the syntax or struggling to understand the concepts. **Would you kindly [edit] your answer to include additional details for the benefit of the community?** – Jeremy Caney Aug 30 '23 at 00:46
