Whether all tests for this estimator should be skipped.

Part of packaging metadata for the object, used only in sktime CI.

  • String name: "tests:skip_all"

  • Private tag, developer and framework facing

  • Values: boolean, True / False

  • Example: True

  • Default: False

sktime’s CI framework regularly tests estimators in pull requests, usually only estimators that have changed, via run_test_for_class.

The tests:skip_all tag of an object is a boolean. If set to True, all tests for the estimator are skipped.

WARNING: this tag should be used with caution, as it will skip all tests for the estimator, including those that are necessary for the estimator to be considered a valid estimator in sktime.

The tests:skip_all tag is not used in user facing checks, error messages, or recommended build processes otherwise.
