[issue16935] unittest should understand SkipTest at import time during test discovery

[Chris Jerdonek]

Chris Jerdonek added the comment:

Without the proposed enhancement, you could also combine Éric's approach with the original patch by doing something like:

try:
    support.import_module(module)
except SkipTest:
    module = None

def setUpModule():
    if module is None:
        raise SkipTest()
