Yes I am, sorry for not being clearer.   

You can throw that in the else block where you print the message about skipping the test and it will be tracked as a skip vs a pass.

Not a big deal either way but gives you extra granularity as to why the test was not run and easier to see vs just a print statement…  I just wanted to point this out as something to consider going forward.

Have a good rest of your day!
