Thank you for the pointers , but I modified my code to use raise
instead of exception , just wondering how will I display the message
with the below code ,

Sample code :

import os
try:
    import unittest2 as unittest
except ImportError:
    import unittest

class MyTests(unittest.TestCase):
    @classmethod
    def setUpClass(cls):
        #x =3D False
        x =3D None
        if not x:
            raise unittest.SkipTest(
                "class setup failed")

    def test_one(self):
        print "test_one"

    def test_two(self):
        print "test_two"

if __name__ =3D=3D "__main__":
    unittest.main()

output:

gpal-3c6dc81-1# python c_4.py
s

OK (skipped=3D1)
