pytest.skip() must not be used at module level because it can easily be
misunderstood and used as a decorator instead of pytest.mark.skip, causing the
whole module to be skipped instead of just the test being decorated.
This is unexpected for users used to the @unittest.skip decorator and therefore
it is best to bail out with a clean error when it happens.
The pytest equivalent of @unittest.skip is @pytest.mark.skip .
Adapt existing tests that were actually relying on this behaviour and add a
test that explicitly test that collection fails.
fix#607
Add --continue-on-collection-errors option to restore the previous behaviour:
Execute tests (that were successfully collected) even when collection errors
happen.
Some tests had to be modified e.g. because the return code changed to 2
(EXIT_INTERRUPTED) instead of 1 (EXIT_TESTSFAILED) because an Interrupted
exception is raised on collection error.

This should prevent errors from pyenv:
pyenv: python2.6: command not found
The `python2.6' command exists in these Python versions:
2.6.9
While the pyenv wrapper explicitly returns 127, I think it is better to
just check for non-zero?!
The inner function and the explanatory comment it makes necessary can
all be removed if we switch to an if/else rather than try/except for
this condition.
Perhaps this bit comes from my fondness for C, but I think I would
find this style clearer and easier to understand even if it weren't
for the Python 2 quirk that makes the other style require us to add an
unnecessary-looking function abstraction. In any case, given that the
alternative does require that abstraction this is definitely simpler.
When the method argument is missing on teardown_method, the traceback is
100% internal to pytest, which with default options get pruned. Then
that traceback is empty, leading to a new exception as a traceback shall
not be empty.
This PR fixes that issue by pushing back the last stack on the
traceback, when the stacktrace is empty after pruning. Then the output
is still pruned, but gives meaningful information with the item where it
failed on the stack.
