Consider skipped tests in addition to passed tests when evaluating the

I am finally with you now. Can you please more information in your
short log and commit log.

Isn't this a bug fix? Current logic before this change will report
tests failed if there are any skipped tests?

Can you send v2 calling it a fix and explain the problem clearly.


v2 sent: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240730102928.33182-1-laura.nao@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/
This isn't problem in this patch, but I am concerned about how
simply calling tests passed without calling out skipped tests.

This problem could be solved by printing a message at the end of tests
for non-zero skipped test conditions to say the coverage could be
increased by enabling config options.


Right. We can send a separate patch to address this.

Yes please. Thank you.

thanks,
