Given the code below, what will happen when running the test on a Windows system?

import sys
import pytest

@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.platform != 'win32', reason='Only runs on Windows')
def test_windows_feature():
    assert True

AThe test will raise a syntax error

BThe test will always run regardless of platform

CThe test will fail on Windows systems

DThe test will be skipped on non-Windows systems

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Analyze the skip condition
The condition sys.platform != 'win32' means skip if platform is not Windows.
Step 2: Determine behavior on Windows
On Windows, sys.platform == 'win32', so condition is False, test runs. On other OS, condition True, test skipped.
Final Answer:
The test will be skipped on non-Windows systems -> Option D
Quick Check:
Skip if not Windows [OK]

Quick Trick: Condition True means skip; False means run test [OK]
