Annotation Type Ignore

@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
@Target(value=METHOD)
public @interface Ignore

Sometimes you want to temporarily disable a test. Methods annotated with Test that are also annotated with @Ignore will not be executed as tests. Native JUnit 4 test runners should report the number of ignored tests along with the number of tests that ran and the number of tests that failed.

For example:
@Ignore @Test public void something() { ...
@Ignore takes an optional default parameter if you want to record why a test is being ignored:
@Ignore("not ready yet") @Test public void something() { ...
