Description

Make use of the @ConditionalIgnore annotation and corresponding JUnit ConditionalIgnoreRule to ignore tests on a case-by-case basis using a specific set of criteria (a.k.a. IgnoreCondition).

This could be used for instance to ignore offending tests causing failure or hangs in the test suite downstream or to conditional ignore a test based on specific environmental/context requirements.
