@pytest.mark.skipif with condition - Interactive Code Practice

Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to skip the test when Python version is less than 3.8.

PyTest

import sys
import pytest

@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.version_info < [1], reason="Python version too low")
def test_example():
    assert True

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A(3, 7)

B(3, 8)

C(3, 9)

D(2, 7)

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a string instead of a tuple for version comparison.

Using the wrong version tuple that does not match the skip condition.

The condition sys.version_info < (3, 8) correctly skips the test for Python versions less than 3.8.

2fill in blank

medium

Complete the code to skip the test if the platform is Windows.

PyTest

import sys
import pytest

@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.platform == [1], reason="Skip on Windows")
def test_platform():
    assert True

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A"darwin"

B"linux"

C"win32"

D"cygwin"

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'windows' instead of 'win32'.

Confusing platform strings for different OS.

sys.platform returns 'win32' on Windows, so the test is skipped when sys.platform == 'win32'.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the skip condition to correctly skip on Python 3.10 or higher.

PyTest

import sys
import pytest

@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.version_info [1] (3, 10), reason="Skip on Python 3.10+")
def test_version():
    assert True

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A>=

B!=

C==

D<

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '<' which skips versions below 3.10 instead.

Using '==' which only skips exactly 3.10.

To skip on Python 3.10 or higher, the condition should be sys.version_info >= (3, 10).

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to skip the test on Python 3.9 or lower and on Linux platform.

PyTest

import sys
import pytest

@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.version_info [1] (3, 10) or sys.platform == [2], reason="Skip on Python <=3.9 or Linux")
def test_combined():
    assert True

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A<

B>=

C"linux"

D"win32"

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '>=' instead of '<' for version check.

Using wrong platform string like 'win32' instead of 'linux'.

sys.version_info < (3, 10) skips Python 3.9 and lower; sys.platform == 'linux' skips Linux platform.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to skip the test on Python 3.11 or higher, on Windows platform, or if an environment variable 'SKIP_TEST' is set to '1'.

PyTest

import sys
import os
import pytest

@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.version_info [1] (3, 11) or sys.platform == [2] or os.getenv([3]) == '1', reason="Skip on Python 3.11+, Windows, or env var")
def test_all_conditions():
    assert True

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A>=

B"win32"

C"SKIP_TEST"

D<

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '<' instead of '>=' for version check.

Using wrong platform string like 'windows' instead of 'win32'.

Not quoting the environment variable name.

Use '>=' for Python 3.11 or higher, 'win32' for Windows platform, and 'SKIP_TEST' as the environment variable name.
