A **xfail** means that you expect a test to fail for some reason.
|
||||
A common example is a test for a feature not yet implemented, or a bug not yet fixed.
|
||||
When a test passes despite being expected to fail (marked with ``pytest.mark.xfail``),
|
||||
it's an **xpass** and will be reported in the test summary.
|
||||
|
||||
``pytest`` counts and lists *skip* and *xfail* tests separately. Detailed
|
||||
information about skipped/xfailed tests is not shown by default to avoid
|
||||
cluttering the output. You can use the ``-r`` option to see details
|
||||
corresponding to the "short" letters shown in the test progress::
|
||||
|
||||
pytest -rxs # show extra info on skips and xfails
|
||||
pytest -rxXs # show extra info on xfailed, xpassed, and skipped tests
|
||||
|
||||
More details on the ``-r`` option can be found by running ``pytest -h``.
