"I am" is two words, not one. I hope you wouldn't write "Youare" or "Heis" :-) Whenever you write "Iam", I read it as the name "Ian", which is very distracting. > Iam skipping the unittest from setUpClass in following way # raise > unittest.SkipTest(message) > > The test are getting skipped but I have two problem . > > (1) This script is in turn read by other scripts which considers the > test have passed based on the scripts return code , but the test have > actually been skipped , How do include an exit status to indicates that > the test have failed But the test *hasn't* failed. A skipped test is not a failed test. If you want the test to count as failed, you must let it fail. You can use the fail() method for that. https://docs.python.org/2/library/unittest.html#unittest.TestCase.fail > (2) Why is the message in the raise statement i.e raise > unittest.SkipTest("Class setup failed skipping test") not getting > displayed . Raising a SkipTest exception is equivalent to calling the skipTest method, which marks the test as an expected skipped test, not a failure. Since it is not a failure, it doesn't display the exception. If you run unittest in verbose mode, the skip message will be displayed.
