That's the case where this change would be annoying. If there are very very few of them, I suppose it's not a big deal.</pre>

I see this more as an augment to the minversion/maxversion rather than a replacement since min/maxversion deal with open-ended ranges while this skip functionality deals with individual branches. I don't remember if min/maxversion also handles down to the tag level, but if it does that would also be an issue.</pre>

<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">I agree with Kinsey. I don't think we should necessarily remove the minversion or maxversion checking that already exists, nor do I think we should remove the ability to simply skip a test for all branches. I'd prefer this functionality to exist along side that. That keeps the current capabilities of the test suite intact, but gives us the additional flexibility that is needed and that this patch does provide.</pre>

<pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">I'm looking for some initial feedback on the following patch. Since we have the digiumphones branch now, we need to rework on the testsuite handles asterisk versions. Before we used minversion / maxversion (which worked across branches) however this does not work well if you have a parallel branch.
So, I've removed them in favour of 'skip'. Basically, the testsuite will run on every version of asterisk unless you have 'skip' defined, then depending on the flag (right now branch) it checks to run or skip the test.
We currently use the 'skip' flag, but only for a basic check. At the moment to skip broken tests, this new method would give us more control on the type of tests to skip. EG: Skip if OS is FreeBSD or skip if arch is i386.</pre>

There is also more work needed to be done in updating the test-config.yaml files, however I want to get this patch reviewed before making all those changes.</pre>
